Maybe you won’t need your scuba gear to visit the old haunts of Pantaenus, Clement, Origen, and Athanasius. Al Ahram Weekly reports that Egypt’s Ministry of Culture is discussing the possibility of cleaning the sewage out of the harbor and constructing an underwater museum.

I wouldn’t sell the scuba equipment just yet, though. Keep in mind that Egypt has had more than five millennia to perfect the art of bureaucratic drag.
