Historic texts tell of a mighty Ancient Egyptian city in the Nile delta. Celebrated as a trade hub and visited by Greek gods, it mysteriously disappears from history in the 2nd century BC.
After 2000 years with the notion of a city existing only in legend, using the unique visualisation techniques developed for Drain the Oceans, we remove the waters of the Mediterranean to reveal this long lost metropolis in all its former glory.
Cutting edge technology and archaeological data allow us to finally unravel the mystery behind its extraordinary rise to international fame and the terrifying events that led to its destruction.
