Temple of Horus - Reliefs

The rear walls of the colonnade are covered with three rows of large reliefs depicting the Pharaoh (Ptolemy IX Soter II or Ptolemy X Alexander I) holding converse with the gods or in the person of the victorious god Horus. Similar representations are repeated all over the temple. On the sides of the pylon the King is shown, with the Lower Egyptian crown on the west side and the Upper Egyptian crown on the east side, proceeding to the temple and being sprinkled with the water of consecration by Horus and Thoth. The doors to right and left of these reliefs lead to the staircases inside the pylon; the east and west exits are walled up. Outside the east exit are the remains of a building dating from the reign of Ramesses III.
