Shunet el-Zebib Description
Northwest of Ramesses II's temple are the ruins of Shunet el-Zebib, surrounded by an outer and an inner (and higher) wall of sun dried brick. The complex, 145yd/133m long, probably dates from the second Dynasty and may have been a palace. The popular view of this structure as a fortress is undoubtedly erroneous.
