Lighthouse of Kanopos

The Lighthouse of Kanopos was a lighthouse standing north of the harbour of the town Kanopos, Egypt, during the 1st century BCE. In 48 BCE, it was where the Medjay Bayek of Siwa met Apollodorus, a close attendant of Queen Cleopatra who had information that he needed to combat the Order of the Ancients.[1]

A year later, the Roman general Gaius Julius Caesar and Bayek broke through the Siege of Alexandria, racing to the lighthouse where Caesar's naval fleet awaited. Chased by Ptolemy XIII's soldiers, they managed to lose their pursuers and narrowly avoided being crushed by a falling war elephant.[2]
