A Roman-era tomb has been uncovered at the Umm al-Rakham archaeological site in Marsa Matrouh, revealing two catacomb-style rock-cut tombs, 29 burial sites, statues, and ancient artifacts. The discovery sheds light on Marsa Matrouh's role as a key trade center in the Mediterranean during the Roman era.
A Roman-era tomb in Marsa Matrouh has been uncovered during excavations at the Umm al-Rakham archaeological site in the Marsa Matrouh governorate (northern Egypt). This discovery is a significant addition to the historical attractions of Marsa Matrouh, a city included in many Egypt Travel Packages.
The city of Marsa Matrouh is located on the Mediterranean coast, 290 kilometers west of Alexandria and 524 kilometers from the Egyptian capital Cairo. Egypt Shore Excursions often include this region for travelers looking to explore the coastal beauty and ancient heritage of Egypt.
The discovery was made during excavations carried out by an Egyptian archaeological mission headed by Qutb Fawzy, head of the Central Department of Antiquities of the Sea Face and Sinai. It included two rock-cut tombs of the “Catacomb” style, known in the Roman era, with 29 burial sites, a number of glass jars, carved and decorated sacrificial tables, a statue of a man in a Roman robe, a ram statue, a bust of an unknown woman, and some bronze coins.
It also uncovered “a bathhouse complete with architectural elements, inside which were found reception halls, seating benches for bath users, bathing rooms, cisterns and water drainage places,” Dr. Ayman Ashmawy said. Egypt Day Tours often bring tourists to visit such newly uncovered sites, providing an immersive journey into Egypt’s ancient past.
Which were closed with limestone plugs,” he said. “The burial place of the owner of the tomb was closed by an imaginary door whose sides rested on two columns with relief carving, and in the center was represented by a double-sided door surmounted by a periodic frieze containing tooth decoration and a limestone offering table below it.”
The city of Marsa Matrouh includes a number of archaeological monuments, the most prominent of which is the Temple of Ramses II, discovered by archaeologist Labib Habash in 1942, in addition to the Cleopatra Baths area, which includes some archaeological mounds. According to the Egyptian State Information Service website, it was indicated “the presence of archaeological mounds and rock-cut tombs from the Greco-Roman era in the Sidi Barani area of Matrouh, and other archaeological tombs in Jebel Dakrour and Jebel al-Muta areas, and other ancient mounds that need excavations to reveal their secrets.
