Historical background

Alexander the Great founded Alexandria in 331 BC on the western edge of the Nile delta. Under the Ptolemies it became the largest city of the Greek world, with the lighthouse of Pharos and the famous Library. Under Rome it remained the second city of the empire and the port through which Egyptian grain went to Rome.
