The clue to what the ancient Egyptians did to Piramess 3000 years ago lies hidden in the middle of an unassuming field in modern day Qantir. Here are the feet of one of the many colossal 1 statues that Rammesses the great built at Piramess. The rest of the statue is somewhere else.

The feet of some statues at Tanis have been left behind at Qantir when the ancient Egyptians did some thing incredible. They moved their city,and they moved it to where the new branch of the Nile now flowed. Piramess was abandoned and in new town, new residents also build up along the Tanitic Branch of the Nile. This was Tanis. It was at last possible to solve the mistery of the heart of the story of Piramess. How it ended up being in 2 places at once?About 150 years after Rammesses's death, when the river around Rammesses silted 3 up, the city ceased to function. Unwilling 4 to abandon the splendid place, the ancient Egyptians decided 5 to move the entire city to where the Nile had moved to. Slowly Piramess was disassembled block by block, statue by statue. It was a monumental feet undertaken to keep alive one of the greatest cities ever created. The largest statues weighed up to 1000 tons.
