Published by: Tom Elliott - Pincian Hill
The Pincian Hill in Rome likely takes its name from the Pincii, an ancient family. It is not considered a member of the canonical grouping of Rome's hills, but it did lie within the line of the walls built by Aurelian. In the early Imperial period, it is known as a zone of elaborate gardens, hence the moniker "collis hortulorum".

Nekou Diorux, an ancient canal in the Wadi Tumilat of Egypt that connected the Pelusiac branch of the Nile River with the Red Sea. Ancient authors, including Aristotle, Strabo, and Pliny the Elder, describe a person-made canal in the Nile River valley that has come to be known colloquially as the "Canal of the Pharaohs". According to Pliny, this project began under the 12th Dynasty pharaoh Senusret III (1878–1839 BC). Work on the canal continued under Darius I of Persia, and then yet again under the Ptolemies. Darius I famously erected a series of inscribed monuments marking and commemorating the canal. Pliny continues to state that following this last phase, the canal extended as far as Fontes Amari and was "100 feet wide, 30 deep, and 37 miles long".
