Deep beneath the ancient ruined city of Taposiris Magna, a remarkable discovery has taken place. Archaeologists have uncovered a vast tunnel, often referred to as a 'geometric miracle'. The tunnel, found 13 meters below the ground, is the result of ongoing excavations led by Kathleen Martinez of the University of Santo Domingo.
Measuring 2 meters in height, the tunnel stretches an astonishing 1,305 meters through solid sandstone. Its precise design is reminiscent of the Tunnel of Eupalinos, a renowned aqueduct on the Greek island of Samos. This finds suggests that the Taposiris Magna tunnel is an exceptional engineering feat in its own right.
