Message from BSSS Dear IFMSA-EGYPT Great Family; It is our full proud and happiness to introduce to you our proposal for hosting the 4 IFMSA-EGYPT GA for this term as one of the most important unique national events in our great association. th
Here in this proposal you will find all the facilities and requirements of having a great successful GA full of hard work and funny moments. It may be the 1 time to host IFMSA-EGYPT GA but we are sure of having the enough experience to host this great national event as you all tried before in many other national events hosted by BSSS. st
Actually an important point should be clear for all at the beginning of the proposal that Benha as all of you know is totally away from any circumstances or trouble issues among Egypt, hoping to get our safe Egypt soon..... So don't be worry during being in your 2 city of course. nd
Benha actually has a nice place in-between the other cities of Egypt being in the middle of Egypt, making it easier for all of you to come here.

Nearby are the remains of Athribis which was once the capital of the 10th Nome. Athribis was associated with the worship of the black bull. During the Roman period the city was at its greatest importance. There are little remains of the ancient town except for traces of temples that date from the 18th to the 26th Dynasties. There is also an extensive Graeco-Roman cemetery. Some 26th to 30th Dynasty silver ingots and jewelry that were found at the Athribis site that are now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.
