The ship seemed tiny and insignificant now, dwarfed by the great tower of the Pharos lighthouse. |
Then the MV Pharos cast off, sailing away from the pier for the last time, with the piper playing on deck. |
Pharos is a national refugee and health knowledge center that offers knowledge, insight and skills for improving the quality of health care provided to refugees and asylum seekers. |
When the Romans came to Britain they built a pharos, or lighthouse, at Dover, and several beacons were maintained during the following centuries. |
It also served as a platform for a monumental lighthouse, or pharos, that imitated the great Pharos of Alexandria. |
The pharos was probably a linen garment of Egyptian origin, which was sometimes worn instead of the peplus. |
