Emperor Trajan established a harbor and fortifications at the canal’s junction with the Nile, which Emperor Diocletian later reinforced in the 3rd century AD. Diocletian constructed the Babylon Fortress as part of these expansions to safeguard the canal’s entrance (see picture below). The fortress featured two imposing towers on either side of the canal. Entertaining video, although the creator gets the historical dates wrong: Edited Tuesday at 05:28 PM by guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
