The Great Aten Temple at Tell el-Amarna, Middle Egypt. Even though the northern enclosure wall of the temple is buried beneath a modern cemetery, using Quickbird high resolution satellite imagery, it is still possible to see the buried wall.

Let me guess: the Muslims will claim that Mohammed built the city when Allah sent him back in time?
