Border Forts

The borders must be defended.

Built on Egypt’s eastern border, the fortress of Tharo was a testament to the power of the Pharaohs. The first in a line of eleven forts that ran along a route known as The Horus Way, its walls were thought to be 1,640 feet long and 820 feet wide. Lined with towers and surrounded by a tributary of the Nile to the east and a moat to the north, which some historians argue may have been filled with crocodiles, the walls of Tharo were near impenetrable. It is hardly surprising that it survived periods of Roman and Greek rule to stand for over a thousand years.
