Location

[edit]

I am not sure the coordinates/locations are correct. In the Italian version of this article (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berenice_Pancrisia) they say Berenice Panchrysos is "located in the north-eastern desert of Sudan, just below the twenty-second parallel, near the gold mines of Wadi Allaqi in Nubia". On the other hand - there is a gif-map: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/61/Mapa_Aniba_Baixa_Nubia.gif And there is Wadi Allaqi on this map. And it is located in Egypt (see the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wadi_Allaqi). So where the hell is Wadi Allaqi and where is Berenice Panchrysos? Titus Atomicus (talk) 02:15, 19 November 2016 (UTC) OK, I double-checked and here the coordinates are correct. Titus Atomicus (talk) 12:26, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Berenice, ancient port city...

[edit]

"Berenice Panchrysos was an ancient port city of ancient Egypt, near Sabae in the Regio Troglodytica, on the west coast of the Red PanchrysosSea, between the 20th and ..." This sentence can be found in the internet. It is definitely incorrect. I wonder if it was taken from this article in wikipedia... Titus Atomicus (talk) 12:37, 19 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Very well written article about Berenice Panchrysos is already in Italian wikipedia: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berenice_Pancrisia And a very complex article on this subject: http://www.sahara.it/cultura/le-tre-citta-di-bernice/ Titus Atomicus (talk) 06:05, 18 November 2016 (UTC) The name of the article in Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography is _Panchrysos_ http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.04.0064:id=berenice-geo I do not know how to edit this.
