Roman Period architecture
Most of the architectural forms know from the Roman
world are also attested in Egypt. However, the number of recorded
or excavated buildings is very small. References in written sources
give the impression that at least the nome capitals were equipped
with a number of public buildings in Roman style, such as temple,
basilica and even theatres. Amphitheatres are not attested in Egypt:they
are rare throughout the Eastern part of the Roman empire.
