Realw rterb. ii. p. 309. The modern Ardscher d , a village near Suez , corresponds to this Arsinoe. It was seated near the eastern termination of the Royal canal, which communicated with the Pelusiac branch of the Nile , and which Ptolemy Philadelphus carried on from the Bitter Lakes to the head of the Heroopolite gulf. Arsinoe Plin. v. 12 was ca. 200 km from Pelusium . The revenues of the Arsinoite nome were presented by that monarch to his wife who was also his sister , Arsinoe II of Egypt , after whom the city was named, and remained the property of successive queens or princesses of the Lagids Lagid family . The shortness of the road across the Eastern Desert eastern desert and its position near the canal were the principal advantages of Arsinoe as a staple of trade. But although it possessed a capacious bay, it was exposed to the south wind, and the difficulties which ships encountered from reefs in working up the gulf were considerable. Arsinoe, accordingly, was less eligibly situated for the India n traffic than either Myos Hormos or Berenice port Berenice . In common, however, with other ports on the Red Sea Arsinoe improved in its commerce after the conquest ... between the Nile and the Red Sea terminating at Clysma a few km to the west of Arsinoe.
