	This Day in History
		In the summer of 1798, French General Napoleon Bonaparte and his Army of the Orient landed at Abukir, an Egyptian bay between Alexandria and the Rosetta mouth of the Nile.
		While Napoleon assumed the leadership of France and set about defending the country against a coalition of European powers, his Army of the Orient struggled to hold on to Egypt.
		In March 1801, an Anglo-Turkish force successfully landed at Abukir Bay, and in September Napoleon lost Malta to the British, compelling him to restore Egypt to the Ottoman Empire in 1802.

		The Battle of the Nile, fought in 1798 in Egypt's Abukir Bay between the British fleet commanded by Lord Horatio Nelson and the French fleet of Napoleon Bonaparte, prevented the Mediterranean Sea from becoming a French lake and ensured Britain's dominance as the only global naval power in the Napoleonic era.

		Strong Mediterranean currents can churn the water near the mouth of the Nile river into a sea of mud.
		But when divers led by French explorer Franck Goddio plunged overboard into the Bay of Abukir one morning last year, good visibility made their mission easier.
		As they removed centuries of silt from a jumble of limestone blocks on the sea bed 6.5 m below the surface, one of the divers noticed a large granite imbedded in the clay.
