A stele, which is a stone monument, was retrieved from the sunken ancient Egyptian city of Heracleion located at the bottom of the ocean. Heracleion, also known as Thonis, was an influential and prosperous port city during the Late Period of ancient Egypt. As time passed, various factors such as land subsidence, rising sea levels, and natural disasters caused the gradual sinking of the city into the Mediterranean Sea.

For centuries, the knowledge of Heracleion's existence was limited to historical texts and ancient references. The city's existence became shrouded in myth and legend, with doubts arising regarding its actuality. However, in the early 2000s, Franck Goddio, leading a team of underwater archaeologists, made a groundbreaking discovery in Aboukir Bay near Alexandria, Egypt. By utilizing advanced diving equipment and underwater mapping technology, they unveiled the submerged remains of Heracleion.

The remarkable findings shed light on the city's history and culture, providing valuable insights. The team uncovered a multitude of artifacts and structures, including statues, sarcophagi, jewelry, and even the remnants of a temple dedicated to the god Amun. This discovery not only confirmed the existence of Heracleion but also expanded our understanding of this ancient Egyptian port city.
