The Towers on the Roman Coptos–Myos Hormos Road in Egypt
This paper explores the role and chronology of the towers along the Roman Coptos–Myos Hormos road in Egypt, using visibility analysis. This study concludes that their primary role was to monitor traffic rather than to transmit messages across the desert. Initially, a single tower was built next to each fort on the road as an integral part of their defence and surveillance system. However, as insecurity increased in the first half of the second ce…

Building a Model to Reconstruct the Hellenistic and Roman Road Networks of the Eastern Desert of Egypt, a Semi-Empirical Approach Based on Modern Travelers’ Itineraries
The Egyptian Eastern Desert, the part of the Sahara Desert that connects the Nile and the Red Sea, is rich in natural resources and meshed with multiple networks. The adoption of the camel as the main mode of transportation in the 1st millennium BC, faster and with a greater load capacity than humans or donkeys, dramatically changed the logistics used to cross this difficult terrain. Our objective, therefore, is to understand and reconstruct circ…

The dataset contains the spatial data needed to build the network of least cost camel paths between archaeological sites and watering places in the Egyptian Eastern Desert during the Ptolemaic and Roman periods. It includes the sites to be linked, the travel factors (topography, navigation and terrain surface), the modern traveler routes used for training and model validation, and the outputs. Data processing models, made on ArcGIS 10.5, are avai…
