Sunken cities: egypt's lost worlds, paperback/franck goddio

Beneath the waters at the edge of the Nile Delta, lie the submerged remains of the ancient Egyptian cities Naukratis and Thonis-Heracleion, which sank over 1,000 years ago but were dramatically rediscovered in the 20th century and brought to the surface by marine archaeologists in the 1990s.

These pioneering underwater excavations have yielded a wealth of ancient artefacts, to be exhibited in Britain for the first time in 2016.

This book showcases a spectacular collection of artefacts, coupled with a retelling of the history behind them.
