Excerpt from Babylon of Egypt: A Study in the History of Old Cairo On the contrary I shall show, or aim at showing, in this essay that for many centuries before the conquest Babylon was the recognized name of a town or city of great importance: that the term was so understood at the time of the conquest: and that this usage prevailed for some centuries after the conquest. At the same time it will be made clear that, owing to that strange dualism of nomenclature which the normal coexistence of different languages in Egypt renders so common there, the usage of the term cannot be sharply distinguished from other names of the same town or locality: but that in fact the primeval name of xruu, the ancient name of Misr (which was also adopted by the Arabs), the name of Memphis, the old capital, the Greek name Letopolis, and finally the name Fustat, bestowed on the place by the Arabs, are all used more or less interchangeably with Babylon at different epochs by various writers, Coptic, Greek, or Arabic.
