Privé Catacomben & Pompeius-zuil Tour

The Catacombs of Kom el-Shoqafa are a 2nd-century CE underground necropolis in Alexandria, Egypt, discovered by accident in 1900 when a donkey fell through the ground. Cut roughly 35 metres deep across three levels, the tombs blend ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman funerary art and architecture, and are included on Alexandria's UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List.

Pompey's Pillar is a Roman triumphal column standing in Alexandria, Egypt, carved from a single block of red Aswan granite and rising roughly 26.85 meters, including its Corinthian capital. Despite the name, it honors Emperor Diocletian, erected around 298–302 AD after he suppressed a revolt; the "Pompey" attribution stems from a medieval misreading, not Pompey the general.

Nergens anders in Egypte laten Egyptische, Griekse en Romeinse artistieke tradities zich zo direct gecombineerd zien op één locatie.
