You're welcome .. there were a few other sites that I found.
I had never heard of that lighthouse before and it was pretty interesting

Well, as I mentioned it's one of the seven wonders
of the ancient world. The others are The Colossus
of Rhodes, Babylon's hanging gardens, a statue of
Zeus at Olympia, The Great Pyramid of Egypt, The
Temple of Artemis at Ephesus & the Mausoleum at
Halicarnassus. The Colossus & the statue of Zeus no
longer exist. The Temple of Artemis was burned
down by a guy trying to make his name well known or
immortalized or something like that. The Mausoleum is
gone, except for a few bits & pieces. A set of horses from
the roof still existed last I knew. The Great Pyramid is the last wonder.
