<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ancient coin hunter, post: 8316885, member: 87200&quot;]Pelusium was a prominent Delta town. Because of the moisture, many of the ruins in Lower Egypt are lost or became unidentifiable, mud brick did not survive - also folks collect the stones of temples and monuments to build sugar cane kilns.</p><p><br /></p><p>Whereas in Upper Egypt mud brick often survives, for example temple enclosure walls, among them the walls around the temple of Hathor at Dendera and the town and fortress at Coptos (later called Justinianopolis) before the Muslim invasion. Similarly the temple of Ramses IV at Medinet Habu is surrounded by a surviving mud brick enclosure wall. Interesting write-up and contributions everyone.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
