<p>[QUOTE="ancient coin hunter, post: 5167268, member: 87200"]Thanks for the info [USER=112900]@Jovian363[/USER] - fascinating stuff. When I was last in Egypt an ancient fort was found in the city of Luxor dating to the time of Diocletian. A German archaeological team had cordoned off the area (which in fact was quite close to Luxor temple (pretty much across the street). It was speculated on the placards that it was a staging place for campaigns against the Blemmeyes which had threatened southern Egypt at the time, and may also have played a role in halting support for Domitius Domitianus, a usurper in Alexandria that had gained the backing of the population in Upper Egypt.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
