Detail InformationEdit

The Temple of Kalabsha is an Ancient Egyptian temple that was originally located at Bab al-Kalabsha , approximately 50 kilometers south of Aswan. The temple was situated on the West Bank of the Nile River, in Nubia, and was originally built around 30 BC during the early Roman era. While the temple was constructed in Augustus’s reign, it was never finished.
The temple was a tribute to Mandulis , a Lower Nubian sun god. It was constructed over an earlier sanctuary of Amenhotep II. The temple is 76 meters long and 22 meters wide in dimension. While the structure dates to the Roman period, it features many fine reliefs such as “a fine carving of Horus emerging from reeds on the inner curtain wall” of the temple. From Kalabsha’s “sanctuary chambers, a staircase leads up to the roof of the temple” where one can see a splendid view of the temple itself and the sacred lake.
