Temple of Karnak Temple of Ramses III
Temple of Karnak Temple of Ramses III Part IIIRamesses III believed that the temple of Amun-Re had finished planning the second edifice and the rams road in front of him, especially since the second city had already built his three tombs of the Holy Trinity on the left "in front of the temple of Abet Sut" preferred Ramses III to establish his temple south (to the right inside) In front of the temple of Abt Sut also. He set him up "in a great holy place on holy land in front of Abet Sut." He did not know that his temple was destined to merge into successive additions to the large temple, yet it alone constitutes a well-defined architecture.
The Temple of Ramses III is the living model of the temples of the gods in the modern state and was also dedicated to the rest of the holy boats of the triad of good in the era of Ramses III begins with a lot of vandalism see the traditional scenery, which is mostly found on the edifices, the king photographer and his wife (Alka) slaughtered his captors feeling In front of Amun, who offer him three rows of captured cities, each representing a person who emerges from the cartouche inside the name of the city captured. The monument is preceded by two statues of King Ramesses III and carved out of sandstone.
Finally we get to the three holes of the Holy of Holies, the middle especially for the boat Amun and the right for the boat Khonsu and the left for the boat of the gods of death, according to the scenes recorded on the walls of the interior of these booths in addition to some side rooms for the requirements of ritual supplies and there is also next to the death compartment room with a ladder The roof of the temple.
We are now in the middle of the great open courtyard. We find the famous Aston Taharqa, one of the kings of the twenty-fifth dynasty, the remains of a huge legendary lounge built by this Ethiopian king in the 7th century BC. In 1928 and 1929, the Department of Antiquities rebuilt this astronaut. Of the kings of the Twenty-sixth Dynasty and Ptolemy IV known as Philomator on the stones of this papyrus, which reaches a height of 21 meters and has a crown in the form of papyrus mellow flower and this lounge consists of two rows of Alastin on the base in the middle of the sacred compound of the god Amoun August That celebrations.
We reach the second edifice or the remnants of the second edifice. It is largely demolished. It was built by King Horemheb and was completed by Ramesses the First and recorded by his name Ramses II and added to it additions from the reign of Yorgtis II, Ptolemy VIII. In 1954, a huge statue of King Panjim, the son of Benkhi, was found near the 21st dynasty. There is a belief that King Panjim had usurped him from King Ramses II, especially as the small statue standing above his feet is as close as possible to the statues of Nefertari, the wife of Ramses II. For the second edifice H second eaves (or roof) dating back to the reign of King Taharqa and renewed Bsmatik II.
It has a roof of 134 cylinders constructed of sandstone and has sixteen rows. To three meters and surrounding more than ten meters. The first city set up the rest of the 122 cylinders with 14 rows of seven rows on each side. The height of the fleet is 14.74 meters and its crowns took the form of papyrus sprouts, thus the ceiling of the lobby is on two levels so that the center of the roof rises sideways. Luxurious stone allows light to leak out to illuminate the way to the foyer, the procession.
The remnants of the colors on the crowns of the colonies and the ceiling point to the views of this hall and its inscriptions were decorated with different colors. One of the most beautiful scenes on the northern wall of King Seti I was represented. He performed various religious rituals. His name is on her papers. On the same wall, but from the outside, we find the scenes of the first city in the fight with the Asians and his victory over them. The interior views on the southern wall of the lobby of the Asiatin represent King Ramses II in his various relations with the gods and gods, and perhaps find it to see the scene, which represents Ramses II in the dress of priests Incense in front of the sacred procession of Amun carried by the priests wearing the masks of both the spirits of Bhutto (the heads of the hawks) and the spirits of Nakhn (the heads of the jackals) and then followed on the shoulders of the priests also both Khonsu boat and the death boat. NF O The southern wall, but from the outside, there is a prominent wall inscribed with the poetic text of the battle of Kadesh, which is known as the poetry of "Pentaor," referring to the name of the writer who organized. Ramses II recorded his name on both the northern and southern entrances to the lobby of the colonies, calling the southern entrance the name of "the great gate of the king of Upper and Lower Egypt and the secret of Maat Re Step that Re son of Re Ramesses II is loved by the great monuments in the temple of Amun." On the northern entrance is the name "The Great Gate of the King of Upper and Lower Egypt, the Lord of the Two Lands, and the Secret of Maat-Re-Step, that Re-son of Re-Ramesses is the beloved of Amun (named) illuminated in the house of Amun."
We reach the third edifice and the date of the construction of this edifice and the following edifices such as the fourth, fifth and sixth ..etc. It has its own difficulty and perhaps the reason for this is the succession of kings and even demolished Maschidh of their predecessors of kings and rebuilding new buildings of interest to them and then comes the turn on them to adjust them Maamloh who preceded them and so on. For example, the third edifice that was built and ordered by Amenhotep III, there is no doubt that he ordered the demolition of all the buildings used as fillings from previous eras and we have mentioned them in detail It is now difficult to imagine the beauty of this edifice, which was the western façade of the temple. In his reign, the reason for this is largely demolished, but we can through the text left by King Amenhotep III on the painting (the painting now in the Egyptian Museum has been usurped by Merenptah) found in the temple to commemorate his memory on the West Bank The whole of gold and a picture in the form of a ram decorated with my right azod It is inlaid with gold and many precious stones and has no parallel and its land is sweetened with silver and up to the edifice of the sky like the four pillars of the sky and shining flags flagged with gold more than the sky.
The third edifice is now demolished and we have talked about the traces found inside it and used as a filler for him. Perhaps the most important: the full stones of the cabin of Senusert I white and the stones of the cabin of Amenhotep I and stones for the rest of the Holy Boat of Queen Hatshepsut, known as the red cabin.
We leave now from the northern entrance to the large courtyard to reach what is known as the terminology of the museum, we see on the left (west) stones Hatshepsut compartment and most of its views represent the relationship of the Queen to the gods and gods. Then we reach the cabin of Senusert the First.
Jusub Jubilee of King Senusert the First:
The complete stones of this gusk were found among the monuments found inside the third edifice built by King Amenhotep III of the 18th Dynasty kings in the Karnak temples. It was rebuilt by the French engineer Chafria in 1936 and is now housed in the area known as the "Museum" on the northInside after the first edifice of the temple.
The Jusak, a white limestone is a relatively small base high above it was built a hall characterized by two facades on one axis and each facade is characterized by a simple staircase in the middle of one connecting to the entrance and each staircase is characterized by a "handrail" with a round top and each facade is characterized by the presence of four columns The second and third columns are the other two sides of the temple Vchahabhan in their system with the facade system, but they are taller and have no entrance. The entrance itself distinguishes the upper lintel decorated with the winged sun and above it, we see the Egyptian cornice that surrounds the upper edges of the temple.
In the center of the temple a square of granite surrounded by four columns divided on two rows and notes that the scenes and texts engraved on the walls and columns of this temple have reached a level of magnificence and perfection indicate the ability of the Egyptian artist in that era. Most of them represent the king with his different relations with the gods. The texts are perhaps the most important mention of the different regions of Egypt in this period and what is related to the dam of King Senusert the First has differed views in the purpose of this temple. He believes that the temple was a resting temple for the sacred compound of Amun-Re, whose statue was placed inside the sacred naos during religious ceremonies. He sees this as the granite base and the ascending entrance to the temple.
The cabin of Amenhotep the First:
The exterior views of the northern wall of Amenhotep the First represent his religious relations with the god Amun. We offer offerings as well as the weather ritual known as the "running" "by the" sense ". The exterior views on the south wall represent Tuthmosis the first in his religious relations with Amon. "Running in the rudder and paddle"
The interior of the cabin represents all Amenhotep I in different religious scenes in front of Amun Ra. This cabin in the ancient Egyptian language was called "even prose of the growth of Amun" meaning the temple of the immortal effect of Amun.
We then return to the large open courtyard to continue the visit of the Temple of Amun-Re.
Next to the third pylon is a transverse courtyard in which King Tuthmosis the First set up two obelisks, the two obelisks that were erected in front of the fourth pylon, which was probably the entrance to the temple during his reign. Tuthmosis the Third also erected two obelisks in the same courtyard, and only four of the four obelisks remain in place at the Karnak Temple. The rest of the obelisk belongs to King Tuthmosis the first and reaches a height of 21.3 meters and weighs up to 143 tons and has three vertical rows of texts belonging to the owner of the obelisk Tuthmosis I and then added King Ramses IV side rows. There are views representing Ramses II on the base. We also note that the southern wall after the third edifice and the entrance with the addition was made during the reign of Ramses IX.
Tuthmosis I erected the fourth edifice, which was largely demolished and represented the façade of the temple during his reign. He also erected the Asatin hall immediately after the fourth edifice, although it was believed that cedarwood was the material used to make the roof of this hall and its occupants, as well as erected in The walls of the hall of the great statues represent King Tuthmosis the First in the robe of "love dam" once dressed in the white crown in the southern half of the hall and the red dress once in the northern half of the lobby.
When Hatshepsut came to power, she ordered two obelisks in this transversal hall, possibly as a result of which she removed the wooden strips and removed the bulk of the ceiling. The left obelisk is still standing in place and stands at a height of 29.50 meters, a pink granite stone weighing 323 tons. It was erected on a square base; the rib was 2.65 meters long. The obelisk base recorded the story of the two obelisks it had ordered, the time when they were cut and the reason for which they were erected. We do not know for now the reasons why Hatshepsut to establish these two obelisks in this particular hall is that it has fulfilled the prophecy of the coronation of her enemy Tuthmosis III has been called this hall more than a name in the ancient Egyptian language and all synonyms for one meaning, "Hall of the Papyrus" has been called The reign of Tuthmosis I was the name of "Onet Shebest or Wago," meaning "Great Papyrus Hall". In the reign of Hatshepsut, she was known as "Wages She best" in the same sense. The two only end. In this way, he was deprived of Hatshepsut in his reign at least the glory that would have earned him from the establishment of these two obelisks.
We now arrive at the remains of the ruined fifth edifice. Ten ribs in addition to the side Osirip columns added Tuthmosis III two small rooms on the sides of the entrance to the fifth edifice.
Then we reach the remnants of the sixth small edifice constructed by Tuthmosis the Third from the sandstone and called it "the great internal edifice" and called the entrance made of granite stone called "the great gate (named) from the news of Ra (the name of the coronation of King Thutmose III) beloved Amun in greatness Or his status. " Tuthmosis III built two-yearly halls immediately after the sixth edifice. On the sides of the first hall, we find two courtyards north and south with remnants of the booths erected by Amenhotep the First and the newest of Tuthmosis the Third. Lotus flower level icon. In the first hall there are also two statues to the left of the interior, one representing the god Amun and the other representing the god Amont has been erected by King Tutankhamun of sandstone, so note the great similarity between them and the features of the famous Tutankhamun has raped Horemheb statues and attributed to himself.
Then we arrive at the second annual hall, and John Wilson believes that Tuthmosis's third choice for this particular place "is to prove that the king had performed his righteousness towards God, and Amon was a partner of the king but the most important partner." The Holy of Holies built by Tuthmosis the Third probably existed in the middle of the second yearbooks, after Tuthmosis the Third removed the existing booth of Hatshepsut, which it had erected after most of it was removed from a shrine of the Middle Kingdom. Set up by Tuthmosis III as follows:
"His Majesty has set up a sacred compartment in the beloved place of Amun (and called it) the great throne which resembles the sky horizon (and was made) of the sandstone of the Red Mountain and was inlaid with gold." The halls of the Annals of Tuthmosis III are characterized by five entrances other than the entrance of the edifice itself, two entrances in the first hall north and south and three in the second hall north and east. The rooms on the sides of the halls of the second year, most of them due to the reign of Tuthmosis III; except one important room set up by Hatshepsut and can be accessed from the northern entrance made of black granite stone located in the second hall of the yearbooks to see what was beautiful scenery, some of which are still preserved colors The cruelty of revenge, as Thutmose III ordered the removal of all forms of Hatshepsut from this room. Philip Arredius erected the shrine of the Holy of Holies, which is made of pink granite stone and was dedicated to the sacred compound of the god Amun and is still there, for now, the base on which the Holy Boat of Amun was placed. It is possible that Philip Arredius ordered the building of this shrine in the place of an old shrine dating back to the reign of Tuthmosis III and Philip Arredius. The two walls are rectangular length of the first 6 meters and the second 8 meters has covered the walls of this interior and exterior cabin religious views most important views on the southern wall (right) and the views represent the coronation of the king and presented to the machine and then the procession of Amon boat The scenery is still preserved in its colors. We then arrive at a large courtyard with only a few stones, a place where the Middle Kingdom-era temple is thought to have been built.
Temple Festivals
1- The southern and northern side rooms were intended for the preservation of the temple's requirements of food, drink, perfumes, clothing, and contracts. A large foyer for masters and columns is called the foyer festivals.
2 - rooms in the middle of the Holy of Holies and next to the north is a four-floor hall known as the Botanical Garden, because of its decorating the walls of interesting scenes of plants, birds, and animals brought Tuthmosis III of Syria in the twenty-fifth year of his reign to the garden of the temple and thus can be considered Tuthmosis III first garden founder An animal in the world.
A large rectangle, 43.2 meters long and 15.6 meters wide, unique in its planning and architectural style, the Egyptian architect tried to imitate the royal tent that was erected in the wars. Of the high cylinders in each row ten cylinders, which was termed the name of the tent of the tent may appear inverted crown, it resembles the bell of the opening of the bottom and rounded above where it stands on a pillar above it lintel Perhaps the reason for this that the wooden tent columns must knock from above Not like plant bushes that grow (adopt) from the bottom to the Ola. A row of 32 columns was erected in the four sides of the foyer, which is less than the two rows in the middle. Thus, the roof is leveled on two openings that allow light to enter. It is noted that the bases were deliberately cut so as not to disrupt the course of the boat. Located in the south-west corner on a stone list of the names of the kings who most interested in the Temple of Karnak was erected by Tuthmosis III there and therefore known as the list of Karnak was transferred by Bryce Duffin in 1844 to the Museum of Wavre, where it is now displayed. The archaeologist Henni believes that the foyer of Tuthmosis the Third represents geometrically the first stage of basalka, which was common in the temple Ramesses then found their way out of Egypt.
Southern Buildings of Amun-Re Temple in Karnak:
We return now to the middle courtyard between the third and fourth edifices, and from there we head south to visit the southern part of the temple of Amun-Re. We find in front of us a ruined courtyard with its fame, the courtyard that precedes the seventh edifice, which was built by Tuthmosis the Third. There is no doubt that these statues were once erected inside the temple, before the priests resorted to concealing them in order to preserve them most probably before the Assyrian invasion, so this courtyard is called the "courtyard of the cache." On the west wall of this courtyard we can see Ramesses the Second in his different relations with the gods and gods and on the same wall, but from the outside we see (from north to south) a view representing King Ramesses the Second in his chariot in front of a castle and then the king on his feet attacking the castle and the chariots waiting This is the text of the peace treaty concluded by Ramses II of the Hittites in the twenty-first year of wisdom.
Thutmose III erected the seventh pylon, a vandal, and recorded on both sides of the northern and southern edifice the traditional scenes of the oppression of enemies and see King once suppressing the Asians and bitterly suppressing the Nubians in front of God Amun. The name) Tuthmosis the Third and Amun-Re a great manifestation. " Tuthmosis the Third also erected four statues for him in front of the northern façade of the edifice, two on each side, and there are also three statues from different eras difficult to know the owners.
We pass now through the entrance of the seventh edifice to reach the courtyard in front of it to see the southern façade of the edifice. In front of him are two western statues of Ramesses the Third and the East of Tuthmosis the Third. In this courtyard, which precedes the eighth edifice and the seventh edifice on the left, there are remnants of a small building that was dedicated to resting the sacred compound and dates back to the reign of Tuthmosis III.
