Excerpt from An Historical Account of the Most Celebrated Voyages, Travels, and Discoveries, Vol. 21: From the Time of Columbus, to the Present Period The ch1ef remains of the ancient city, as de scribed by our author, are an imperfect colon nade near the gate that leads to Rosetta, and an eminence in the south east, which is known by the name of the Amphitheatre. Of the suburb, denominated Necropolis, or the City ofthe Dead, there we no vestiges worthy the attentlon of a. Traveller. The walls are of Saracenic structure, and consequently not coeval with the ancient di mensions of the e1ty. They are in several places more than forty feet in height, and apparently twenty on the lowest part. These being flanked with towers and very substantial in themselves, form an admirable defence for the inhabitants agamst the predatory incurs1ons of the Bedoutns, and the hostile approaches of the Mameluke cavalry.
