The Catacombs of Kom al-Shoqafa are the largest Roman burial site in Egypt, cut into the rock in the second century AD. They were found by chance in 1900 and are one of the main antiquities of Alexandria. A spiral staircase leads down through three levels of tombs, halls and passages. The main tomb is carved in a mix of Egyptian, Greek and Roman styles. The site is in the Karmouz district, a short walk from Pompey's Pillar.
