 abstract={Magnetic prospection was chosen as a non-invasive survey method for covering the expanse of the Hellenistic and Roman city and port of Berenike on the Red Sea in Egypt. A test run in 1999 confirmed the potential of the method in the specific conditions of the site and its geology; since 2008 the Polish–American project excavating the site has completed a full-site prospection, revealing surprising data for consideration in the interpretation of site topography and individual architectural remains. The article gives background on the topography of the site and explores three areas of the site: the western district, the southwestern bay and the urban mound in the east, where the results of magnetic prospection have been particularly telling and where, combined with archaeological feedback, they have contributed to a new understanding of the ancient remains. The discussion also poses ideas concerning the interpretation of site topography overall and follows up with prospects for the surveyors in the coming seasons},
