Iseion was an ancient Egyptian temple dedicated to Isis, located on the island of Pharos, north of Alexandria. During her reign, the temple was under the protection of the pharaoh Cleopatra, who declared it safe for Alexandrians visiting to pray.[1]
In around 48 BCE, the Medjay, Bayek, helped Lysander, a former priest of Serapis at the Serapeum of Alexandria, to escape to the temple, after he became wanted by the guards for giving food stolen from them to the citizenry.[2]
