A team of researchers led by Mark Lehner of Ancient Egypt Research Associates found the remains of two 4,500-year-old structures at an ancient port near the Giza pyramids. The buildings excavated at the site are thought to have served as housing for a priest who may have been a high-ranking government official and an official in charge of the production of food for a paramilitary force during the reign of Menkaure, who ruled from about 2490 to 2472 B.C., the researchers say.
A wrong conception on ancient Gaza continues to grow with its academic and political use everywhere. There seems to be no end to this as classroom minds have been fed with false historical ideas on this name.
The original name in the OT was Gaga and it identifies the plain of the river Ganges where Gargis were mostly living who were worshippers of this river. Story of Esdrass A and Esdrass B of OT also find this river both in the Bible as well as in Indian puranic tradition. This place has been wrongly used in the political sense, and nobody who speaks on it and fight for its possession have any historical and geographical sense of Gaga.
To know the world of the period from 2490 to 2472 B.C. a scholar should refer to the maps of Ptolemy and also to maps of Eratosthenes. If at all ancient ports are the subject of research, then Periplus wll help to locate the port of Gaga, which according to this account, there existed a port, a dynasty and a city in this name during the time of the Periplus. Locating Erythraean Sea should be the prime interest of the scholar.
