Ptolemais. Cyrenaica. Libya. View of a sand stone block with an ancient Greek inscription carved into it along the once paved decumanus also known as monumental road which was the premier address of the ancient city. Founded in the 4th century BC, Ptolemais is located on the site of the port or harbour of Barca, an ancient 7th century BC Greek colony situated between the Mediterranean Sea and the steep slopes of the Cyrenaica plateau.
