First discovered in 1986, excavations have since been ongoing at a
Hellenistic-Roman town and its Necropolis near the village of
Marina, on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt. Remains of more than
50 architectural structures have been uncovered, many endowed with
a distinctive decorative stylized architectural form, which forms
the subject of this book. Rafal Czerner analyses the architectural
decoration and its development, discerning three phases which can
be distantly related to the traditional classical orders. He also
examines parallels from other regions, notably the so-called
Nabatean style, seen at Petra, but increasingly believed to have
originated at Alexandria.
