Egyptian archaeologists recently unearthed the ruins of a temple of the Greek god Zeus along with other antiquities from the early Christian and Islamic eras in North Sinai.
The Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities announced April 25 that the discoveries were made during excavations by an Egyptian mission at the archeological site in Tell el-Farma, known in ancient Egypt as Pelusium. The site is located just east of the Suez Canal.
