Informations supplémentaires

Until recently all that remained of the site were two massive colossal statues of the pharaoh. They stood at its entrance gateway, known since antiquity as the “Colossi of Memnon”. By early Dynasty XIX, Merneptah was able to re-use many blocks from the site of Amenhotep III temple Luxor. He reused them in the construction of his own funerary monument nearby. We know the general outline of the temple from traces of its pylons. It is also from columns which have lain buried at the site for centuries. It mentioned as one of Petrie’s “Six Temples at Thebes” but never properly excavated. Fragments of architecture are now re-emerging. It is including a columned hall at the rear of the temple. It was during excavations by teams of German and Egyptian archaeologists in recent years Taken @Luxor, Egypt
