- ―Description[src]
Lake Mareotis is a large lake in northern Egypt, separated from the Mediterranean Sea by the isthmus on which the city of Alexandria resides.
History[edit | edit source]
In 48 BCE, the Medjay Bayek of Siwa travelled across the lake in search of Klaudios, an Alexandrian man who had gone missing from Yamu. He eventually found Klaudious stranded on a column from an island ruin, surrounded by a pack of crocodiles. Bayek was able to eliminate the crocodiles and escorted Klaudious back to Yamu.[1]
Later, the Medjay returned to the island, investigating a series of mysterious killings conducted by a cult of Serqet in the ruins.[2]
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- In Assassin's Creed: Origins, Lake Mareotis is displayed as a region of Egypt which includes the eponymous lake.
