The ancient port of Myos Hormos was established by the Ptolemies on the western coast of the Red Sea in Egypt. It witnessed great interaction between the Ptolemaic kingdom and later the Roman Empire and Eastern nations like India and China. However I found two sets of evidence regarding two different presumed locations of the port: one just north to the Egyptian city of Hurghada and the other north of the Egyptian city of Alqussair. Those locations are around 170 kilometers apart. Any further information on Red Sea ports will be very much appreciated
