The city of Taposiris-Magna (Abusir) enjoys a distinct geographical location 45km west of Alexandria, on the northwestern shore of Lake Mariout. It was known in ancient writings as Taposiris or Taphosiris, which refers to its association with the Egyptian god Osiris. It witnessed a human settlement, most notably during the Greek and Roman eras and continued till the 7th century AD. It includes many important ancient monuments, such as the temple, tower, tombs, baths, quarries and other monuments. It received tremendous attention throughout the ages and was mentioned in many ancient historical sources, for example, Greek Manuscripts and Papyri, as well as in the writings of ancient writers, historians, geographers, and others. During the nineteenth century, restoration work on the site began and continues until now. The main objectives of the research are to trace and study the city's historical background and survey the works of archaeological excavations and restoration on that site. The methodology is based on an analytical study of the city's ancient archive through the chronological events from oldest to latest.
