Extraordinary Ceiling Reliefs Uncovered in an Ancient Egyptian Temple Depict the Zodiac, Planets, and Fantastic Beasts—See Them Here

Conservation work on a 2,200-year-old temple in Egypt has uncovered 12 reliefs representing Babylonian zodiac signs, as well as depictions of stars and constellations that the ancients used to measure time.
The images were found carved into the ceiling of the Temple of Esna in Luxor, which was completed around 250 C.E. and dedicated to the Egyptian god of fertility Khnum. They were revealed by a restoration team, made up of archaeologists from the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities and the University of Tübingen in Germany, which cleared away millennia of dirt and bird droppings from the temple’s surfaces to unveil the 12 astrological motifs that are unusual for a site of worship in Egypt.
“Representations of the zodiac are very rare in Egyptian temples,” said Christian Leitz, a professor at the University of Tübingen, who explained that the Babylonian zodiac was probably introduced to Egypt during Ptolemaic rule between 305 and 30 B.C.E.

“The zodiac was used to decorate private tombs and sarcophagi and was of great importance in astrological texts, such as horoscopes found inscribed on pottery sherds,” added Daniel von Recklinghausen, a Tübingen researcher. “However, it is rare in temple decoration. Apart from Esna, there are only two completely preserved versions left, both from Dendera.”

Egypt 🇪🇬 fulfills the dream of a Canadian family before their children lose their sight. 🙌🏼👏🏼

"The last sights before losing our sight" is a story that summarizes the suffering of a Canadian family consisting of parents and 4 children. The family discovered that three of their children have a disease that will eventually lead to the loss of their eyesight. Therefore, the parents decided to take their children on trips to many countries around the world to see the most important and beautiful cities and tourist landmarks before losing their eyesight.

The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, represented by the Egyptian Tourism Promotion Board, contacted the Canadian family and invited them to visit Egypt and enjoy the ancient Egyptian civilization and monuments, in a humanitarian gesture to alleviate their suffering.

Indeed, the Canadian family arrived in Egypt, and a comprehensive tourist program was organized for them. They took souvenir photos at the most important sites of the Egyptian civilization.

The Canadian family posted photos of themselves in Egyptian tourist destinations, indicating that they visited the National Museum of Civilization, which contains a large number of the most important ancient Egyptian mummies, the Egyptian Museum, the Pyramids area, and entered the Khufu Pyramid and saw the great burial chamber. They expressed their astonishment at what they saw of the ancient Egyptian civilization that they knew nothing about except through documentaries or photos, thanking Egypt for the invitation. 📸🌍🏛️👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🤝

🔱👑🇪🇬 Long live the Queen! Cleopatra, the last Pharaoh of Egypt, was a force to be reckoned with. Born in Alexandria, Egypt, she was a member of the Ptolemaic dynasty, which was of Greek origin. 🏛️👑

Despite her Greek heritage, Cleopatra fully embraced Egyptian culture and religion during her reign as Pharaoh. She even presented herself as the embodiment of the goddess Isis, the divine mother and protector of Egypt. 🌟👸

Cleopatra ruled with an iron fist during a time of political upheaval, fighting to maintain Egypt's independence from the Roman Empire. 🛡️💪

But Cleopatra wasn't just a powerful ruler - she was also known for her incredible intelligence and beauty. Fluent in multiple languages, including Greek, Latin, and Egyptian, she was a skilled diplomat who could hold her own against the most powerful men in Rome. 🧠💄💅

Cleopatra famously had romantic relationships with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, two of the most powerful men in Rome. She had children with both of them, including a son named Caesarion. 💘👶

Despite her many accomplishments and talents, Cleopatra ultimately met a tragic end. After Mark Antony's defeat at the Battle of Actium, she committed su***de by allowing herself to be bitten by an asp. 🐍😢

But Cleopatra's legacy lives on. She remains an icon of strength, intelligence, and beauty, and her story continues to inspire people around the world. 👑🌎

Ramses III’s magnificent memorial temple of Medinat Habu, fronted by sleepy Kom Lolah village and backed by the Theban mountains, is one of the west bank's most underrated sites. This was one of the first places in Thebes closely associated with the local god Amun. At its height, Medinat Habu contained temples, storage rooms, workshops, administrative buildings, a royal palace and accommodation for priests and officials. It was the centre of the economic life of Thebes for centuries.

Philae temple
Built beginning ca. 280 BCE

Built during the reign of Ptolemy II (Egypt’s Greco-Roman Period), the Temple of Isis at Philae is dedicated to Isis, Osiris, and Horus. The temple walls contain scenes from Egyptian mythology of Isis bringing Osiris back to life, giving birth to Horus, and mummifying Osiris after his death.

From early times the island was sacred to the goddess Isis. The complex of structures of the Temple of Isis was completed by Ptolemy II Philadelphus (reigned 285–246 BCE) and his successor,

The temple was in danger of being submerged forever with the construction of the new Aswan dam (1960-1970), which flooded the area. Fortunately, the Egyptian government and UNESCO worked together to pump the area dry and relocate the entire temple, stone by stone (50,000 stones!), to a nearby island called Agilka, where it stands today.

Aswan
Feluccas are simple, traditional Egyptian sailboats, crewed by local sailors. These vessels have been adapted in order to comfortably carry travellers wanting to explore the mighty River Nile. The felucca sails during the day, taking in the colourful sights of the Nile and stopping at various sights of interest to swim and explore. The deck of the boat is draped with soft cushions, perfect for lounging on in the daytime and sleeping out in the open air by night.

Karnak Temple
In antiquity, Karnak was the largest religious sanctuary in Egypt's imperial capital of Thebes (modern Luxor) and was home to the god Amun-Re, king of the Egyptian pantheon. For over 2000 years, successive pharaohs rebuilt and expanded the temples of Karnak, making it the largest complex of religious monuments from the ancient world.

Amonhotep
For nearly four decades, Amenhotep III and his great royal wife, Tiye, ruled together over a time of peace and prosperity in ancient Egypt

The long reign of Amenhotep III and his great royal wife, Tiye, was a golden age for Egypt. Ruling together for as many as 38 years, the pair oversaw a vast and prosperous empire from circa 1391 to 1353 B.C. during Egypt’s 18th dynasty. Wealth poured in from Nubia and the Levant, financing a new era of monument building and artistic expression.
Amenhotep III’s reign is one of the best documented in ancient Egypt. His father, Thutmose IV, passed onto him a wealthy and expansive kingdom at the height of its power and influence. Amenhotep’s empire would stretch 1,200 miles from the Euphrates in current-day Syria to the Fourth Cataract of the Nile in present-day Sudan. Early in his reign, Amenhotep waged successful military campaigns against Nubia, a land rich in gold; after claiming this new territory for Egypt, his reign was largely peaceful, allowing Egypt to grow rich and comfortable.
