Description

The Lighthouse of Alexandria or the Pharos of Alexandria was a lighthouse constructed during the reign of Ptolemy II Philadelphus in a time ranging from 280-246 BC. It took 12 years to construct and cost a lumbering 800 talents of silver. It stood 330 feet tall and was made out of limestone and granite blocks. During the day a mirror was used to reflect sunlight to warn sailors of weather conditions. During the night a furnace was lit and a fire could be seen for miles. The lighthouse's demise came in the years ranging from 950-1300 as a series of earthquakes had battered the tower to submission.
