Greeks Banned From Entering Egypt
May, 4, 454 BC
The Iranian governor of Egypt issued an order written in three languages according to which all Greek nationals were banned from entering Egypt. Egypt was a province of Iran for 121 years. The reason for issuing such an order was that the Greek constantly provoked Egyptians for uprising and a recent incident proved that a revolt was incited by Greeks. The revolt had been suppressed and the Greek involved had been deported while their ship were confiscated . (Updated: Dec, 29, 2007)
