Philae Kiosk of Trajan submitted by AlexHunger on 16th Jan 2005. Kiosk of Trajan
N24.02551 E32.88446
Elevation 122 Meters.
East-West orientation.
Egypt was the bread basket of Rome and Trajan was very eager to maintain good relations with the Egyptians when he built this charming enclosure in 105 CE. It was probably used as a resting place for visiting dignitaries. The reliefs show Trajan offering paying his respects to Isis, Osiris and Horus.
This structure was also saved from its watery resting place in the late 70s, well after all the other Nubi...

Temple of Khnum, Esna submitted by AlexHunger on 4th Jan 2006. Front of the Esana Temple of Knuhm. This temple was largely constructed by the Ptolemeys but all the reliefs were finished by the Romans. The temple was largely buried under the town and some parts still remain buried.
It is unique in that all the columns in the Hypostyle hall are different.
Also, cartouches for most Roman emperors from Tiberius to Caracalla can be found carved on the temple.
