The world and the past very ancient history have secrets that maybe we will never be able to answer…

Anyway, this one is not so difficult.
The Young Dryas event between 12.700 and 11.500 yeas ago was the event that created a small Ice Age and after the upper part of the equator line stopped freezing and started to melt the sea level grow 400 meters, putting almost all land in the world under water and after some time (it could have been years or days) the level get lower because the Magnetics poles realigned and the poles (North and South) get frozen again. The sea level never have been the same again, but some remains of man made structures provides us some ideas of where were the sea level before that period.
And in Egypt wasn’t different, it was under the water for a long time before the water go down, a proof of the is: the Sahara sand it about sea sand and not from other sources of sand formation.
