"Pompey's Pillar" (in reality erected by Diocletian) above the original site of the Alexandrian Serapeum

A serapeum is a temple or other religious institution dedicated to the syncretic Hellenistic-Egyptian god Serapis, who combined aspects of Osiris and Apis in a humanized form that was accepted by the Ptolemaic Greeks of Alexandria. There were several such religious centers, each of which was a serapeion () or, in its Latinized form, a serapeum ("seh-rah-peh-um").
