In all centuries elephants gained a special place in worship so much that a crowd of followers of that worship was gathering to revive the story of the death and resurrection of Osiris. The great temple was built during the third century B.C. and was followed by the temples of Amenhotep and Arsenovis. As for the temple of Hathor, it is considered the last Ptolemaic monument, and its construction was completed before 116 B.C. by Eorgets II.

From Egypt, the cult of the gods Isis extended to Greece, Rome, and throughout the empire, even when Roman rule was applied in Egypt. The rulers tried to beautify the Holy Island. Emperor Augustus Caesar built a temple at the northern end of elephants in the ninth century BC.Aswan High Dam

Abu Simbel

Known as the "Ramses Temple" liked by Amun ", and it is one of the six rocks of temples in Nubia that were erected during the reign of Ramses II. Its purpose is to influence the neighboring countries in southern Egypt, and also to enhance the position of the Egyptian religion in the region. Historians say that the design Abu Simbel expresses something of Ramses II's pride, and the mentioned Abu Simbel differs from the Abu Simbel displacement, which is an extension of the tourist Abu Simbel, but it is about 366 km south of Aswan.As time passed, the temples were deserted and thus were covered in sand. Then, during the 6th century BC, sand covered the statues of the main temple to the knees. The temple was forgotten until 1813, when Swiss orientalist GL Burkhardt found the promenade of the main temple. Borchardt spoke of this discovery with his Italian explorer, Giovanni Bellonzi, who had traveled together to the site, but were unable to excavate the entrance to the temple. Pelonzi returned in 1817,But this time he succeeded in trying to enter the complex. He took everything valuable that he could carry with him. The tour guides on the site associate the name with the legend of "Abu Simbel", which is that there was a small local boy who led the explorers to the site again early in the buried temple, which he saw from time to time in the quicksand. Ultimately, they named Abu Simbel on the temple according to his name.Temple of Kom Ombo
