Ahanasya

Ihnasya is a historical city in the Beni Suef Governorate of Egypt. It is located on the left bank of the Nile, close to the Bahr Yussef canal. Ihnasya, also known as Heracleopolis, served as the capital of the Heracleopolite nome in Ancient Egyptian, Ptolemaic, and Roman periods. Its importance persisted after the Muslim conquest of Egypt, as it became the capital of kurah al-Ihnasiyya.
