The earliest known lighthouse was the Pharos (Great Lighthouse) of Alexandria. Since man has taken to the sea in ships, he has built beacons on the shore to guide returning vessels back to harbor and to warn their captains of perilous shoals and rocks. If you plan on constructing this wonder in one of your cities, don't bother building a Lighthouse there! Note that the Great Lighthouse provides a free Lighthouse building. The effect of a Lighthouse on improved Fish resources turns them into veritable "food pumps" very early in the game. Construct a Lighthouse in them ASAP, especially if there are Fish resources nearby. Oftentimes those cities have problems growing because of limited access to Food (usually when they're built on islands). The Lighthouse is the first specialized sea building, considerably improving the Food output of coastal cities.
