Maqaduniya () is a region in Medieval Egypt comprising Fustat, Ain Shams, Giza and Memphis.
It is unknown if Egyptian Maqaduniya is related to Balkan region of the same name.
Yaqut al-Hamawi in his KitÃÂb Mu'jam al-BuldÃÂn says:<blockquote>"Maqaduniya is the name of Misr in Ancient Greek." </blockquote>Paul Casanova connects Maqaduniya to one of the Ancient Egyptian names of Memphis â Makha-to-ui (, reconstructed pronunciation: ).
It could be also related to the name of Mokattam Hills which Casanova derives from a denomination of the compound Heliopolite deity (Hor)-em-akhet-Atum (Horus of the HorizonâÂÂAtum), the compound which is also present in one of the Sphinx's names â Harmachis ( Harmashi).
