An international scientific team, Led by the underwater archaeologist Franck Goddio, it reveals the exciting history of this hidden city whose temple must have rivaled Ptolemaic Alexandria in importance and beauty.

Thanks to the most advanced technology in underwater archeology we will be able to contemplate spectacular images that will help to unveil the mystery of a city whose legacy had been excluded from history. WHEN ROME CONQUERED EGYPT (WHEN ROME RULED EGYPT): In the year 31 BC, Egypt was conquered by the most feared warriors of the ancient world: the Romans. Immediately, the Romans began to transform the Nile into a river of gold and the country into the jewel of the Roman Empire. But how did they make Egypt one of the richest places on the planet? Archaeologist Steve Sidebotham searches for the answer in this amazing documentary.
