Leontopolis (Heliopolis) — Wikipedia

Leontopolis is the Koine Greek name of a city that may correspond to either the modern area of Tell el Yehudiye or Tell el-Yahudiya ("the Jewish tell"). It was an ancient city of Egypt in the 13th nome of Lower Egypt (the Heliopolite Nome) on the Pelusiac branch of the Nile. This site is known for its distinctive pottery known as Tell el-Yahudiyeh Ware. The site was part of the Land of Onias, after Onias IV, who built a new Jewish temple at Leontopolis to rival the Maccabean hierarchy in Jerusalem, and was home to a Jewish population.
