Unearthing Alexandria’s Archaeology: The Italian's Contribution' contains the results of an archival survey, historical research, and archaeological description of the main Italian excavations in Alexandria from the 1890s to the 1950s. The Italian archaeological investigations in the city of Alexandria are presented through unpublished photographs of Evaristo Breccia, Achille Adriani, and some of the glass negatives of the Graeco- Roman Museum of Alexandria. Various Italians contributed to the fieldwork and the production of drawings and plans, and documenting the majority of the most important sites in Alexandria, on which our archaeological knowledge today is based. But their names have been forgotten compared with Giuseppe Botti, Breccia, and Adriani: Giacomo Biondi, Gino Beghé, Antonio Gentili, Giuseppe Ramacciotti, Mariano Bartocci, Giovanni Dattari, Despina Sinadino, Michele Salvago, Orazio Abate, and Giovanni Peruto. The book gives detailed descriptions of the Italian excavations at Hadra, Chatby, Anfushi, Kom al-Chougafa, the Serapeum, and Kom al-Dikka, accompanied by often unpublished photographs and followed by a catalogue of other rare photographs of different archaeological sites in Alexandria.

Kom al-Ahmer—Kom Wasit III presents the results of our investigations of the Hellenistic phases at the two sites. The survey and excavations occurred between 2017 and 2020 and focused on the residential districts, individual houses, and a public tholoi bathhouse. The volume also includes specialist contributions on the material culture, including Greek pottery and numismatic finds. The Western Nile Delta (the chora of Alexandria) enjoyed a very active life of commerce and trade with the Mediterranean ports. The imports found at Kom al-Ahmer and Kom Wasit emphasise the region’s strong connection with the Aegean Sea, Gaza, and the Cilician region. In addition, an account on the situation of the Western Delta in the Early Arab period presents a fresh overview of the current debate on Egypt beyond AD 641.
