Thmuis ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|θ|m|j|uː|ᵻ|s}}; Greek: {{lang|grc|Θμοῦις}}; {{lang-ar|Tell El-Timai}}) is a city in Lower Egypt, located on the canal east of the Nile, between its Tanitic and Mendesian branches.

History

During the Ptolemaic period, Thmuis succeeded Djedet as the capital of Lower Egypt's 16th nome of Kha (Herodotus (II, 166)). The two cities are only several hundred meters apart. Ptolemy also states that the city was the capital of the Mendesian nome.

Thmuis was an episcopal see in the Roman province of Augustamnica Prima, suffragan of Pelusium. Today it is part of the Coptic Holy Metropolitanate of Beheira (Thmuis & Hermopolis Parva), Mariout (Mariotis), Marsa Matruh (Antiphrae & Paractorium), Libya (Livis) and Pentapolis (Cyrenaica).

In the fourth century it was still an important Roman city, having its own administration and being exempt from the jurisdiction of the Prefect of Alexandria. It was in existence at the time of the Muslim invasion of Egypt in 642 AD, and was later called Al-Mourad or "Al-Mouradeh"; it must have disappeared after the Ottoman conquest of Egypt.{{why|date=March 2018}}

Its ruins are at Tell El-Timai, about five miles north-west of Sinbellawein, a station on the railway from Zagazig to Mansourah in the central Delta.

Bishopric

Le Quien (Oriens christianus, II, 537) names nine bishops of Thmuis, the last three being Monophysites of the Middle Ages. The others are:

  • Ammonius, Bishop of Thmuis,[3] deposed by Heraclas of Alexandria (d. 247) [4]
  • Phileas of Thmuis, d. 306 (in the Martyrology, 4 February), martyr and saint
  • Saint Donatus, his successor, martyr
  • Liberius (not Caius), at the First Council of Nicaea in 325
  • Saint Serapion of Thmuis, died shortly before 360, the author of various works, in part preserved, a friend of St. Athanasius
  • Ptolemæus at the Council of Seleucia (359)
  • Aristobulus, at the First Council of Ephesus (431).
