Egyptian archaeologists have recovered a collection of ancient artifacts from a sunken city off the coast of Alexandria. The discoveries include ruins dating back more than 2,000 years, such as buildings, tombs, fish basins, an ancient quay, and a headless statue. Authorities suggest these relics may belong to the ancient city of Canopus, a significant urban center during the Ptolemaic dynasty and later under Roman rule for approximately 600 years. The findings have been described as treasures hidden beneath the Mediterranean Sea, shedding light on a city sometimes referred to as an Egyptian 'party town.' In a related development, a smuggler involved in looting ancient Egyptian relics has been sentenced to prison, highlighting ongoing efforts to protect the country's archaeological heritage.
