Temple of Philae - The “Philae” temples were originally built to worship the goddess Isis.
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. Other Ptolemies added inscriptions to Philae, which are considered masterpieces of the temple. 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 - The Aswan High Dam, or the High Dam, is a water dam on the Nile in southern Egypt. It was built during the era of Gamal Abdel Nasser and the Soviets helped build it. The dam greatly helped control water flow and mitigate the effects of the Nile flood. Used to generate electricity in Egypt. The length of the dam is 3600 meters, the width of the base is 980 meters, the width of the summit is 40 meters, and the height is 111 meters. The size of the dam is 43 million cubic meters of cement, iron and other materials. A water flow of 11,000 cubic meters of water per second may pass through the dam. Construction of the dam began in 1960 and the total cost was estimated at one billion dollars, one third of which was written off by the Soviet Union. The dam worked on 400 Soviet experts and completed its construction in 1968. The last 12 electric generators were installed in 1970 and the dam was officially opened in 1971.
Temple of Kom Ombo - This temple was established during the reign of Ptolemy VI Philomator, but its decoration did not take place except in the Roman era during the time of Emperor Tiberius and we see in this temple also the same properties that we find in other Egyptian Ptolemaic temples in terms of design, architecture and decoration, but this temple has a special feature that resulted from Local worship at the place, where people worshiped two local deities, Subic and Horus-headed,Although these two deities differ in their origins and character, they lived side by side for centuries without mixing or pairing with each other, and therefore there are no two holy walls adjacent to the Holies only in this temple, but there are also on the axis of each of these two saints the gates to Side to each other, in the outer wall and in the walls of the two halls of the pillars and beyond, and accordingly the temple is divided into two parts each dedicated to the worship of one of these gods.The walls of this temple were decorated with a solid Egyptian decoration, characterized by its delicate workmanship and good harmony and by the beauty of its balance between the characters of its scenes and the surrounding hieroglyphic inscriptions that complement these scenes.
