Description

Excerpt from Cairo of to-Day: A Practical Guide to Cairo and the Nile

Cairo, dating only from the tenth century, has of course no pretension to rank as an ancient historic capital, and its historic interest is purely Mediaeval and Saracenic. In short, the capital of Egypt, the cradle Of the Oldest civilization in the world and the fountain of European arts and sciences, is but a city of yesterday compared to Memphis, Heliopolis, Thebes, and other ancient cities of Egypt now buried under the desert sands, or the accumulation of the debris and rubbish of centuries.
