Roman Town of Kom el-Dahab

Roman Town of Kom el-Dahab


Damietta, Egypt (EG)
Kom el-Dahab was a Roman town in modern-day Egypt. They are located on a small island near Lake Manzala. The town had streets running west-east and south to north. The southern part had the main street. Remains of a big public building of some sort - its function being unknown - most common theory is it was a temple. The remains of a theatre and storage building remain too.

On satellite images, you can just see what appears to be foundations of buildings.
