* From
the time of St. Mark, the first
patriarch of the Egyptian church, the Coptic
patriarchs resided at Alexandria, the cradle of Egyptian Christianity. This was
the first patriarchal seat in Egypt, but there were also others, depending on
historical circumstances. * For the decade 965-975,
the patriarchal seat was at the village of Mahallat Danyal in the district
of Ridah, probably with some interludes at Alexandria. * The present residence
is within the compound of the new Saint Mark's Cathedral at Anba Reuis,
Abbasiyyah, Cairo.
