(250504) -- NORTH SINAI, May 4, 2025 (Xinhua) -- The undated photo shows uncovered remains of military fortresses and residential units for soldiers dating back to the Ptolemaic and Roman periods, in the North Sinai Province, Egypt. An Egyptian archeological mission uncovered these remains in the North Sinai province, the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities said in a statement on Saturday.

According to the ministry's statement, the findings were made at the historical site of Tell Abu Seify, a location of strategic importance throughout antiquity. The Ptolemaic period in Egypt spanned from 332 BC to 30 BC, followed by the Roman era, which lasted until 395 AD.

The discovery offers insights into the design and function of eastern military fortifications during the two eras, underlining the significance of Tell Abu Seify as a prominent military and industrial hub, the statement said. (Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities/Handout via Xinhua)
