The lighthouse at Alexandria, Egypt was built in the 3rd century BC. The height of the lighthouse was estimated to be between 380 and 440 feet tall.

The first was in 956, then another in 1303, and the last in 1323. Engraving appeared in Costumes, manners, customs and material culture in Antiquity and the Middle Ages by Robert von Spalart, circa 1804-11.
