Philae, Aswan, Egypt
13 Mayıs 2019, Mısır ⋅ ☀️ 38 °C
Today, we were collected at 9am from the hotel by our guide for the next 4 days, Hany. Hany took us to the Aswan High Dam, a very important site, built in 1960s, above the low dam built in 1902. It created Lake Nasser, the source of fresh water for Egypt, and is 500km long.

Next, we went to a marina,to catch a little ferry to the island of Philae. The was the site of another temple relocated entirely to higher ground due to the dam. It was partially under water for many years, but they built a coffee dam around it, before carving it up and raising it to a small island where it now sits.

The Temple of Isis is interesting because there is much Greek influence here, by the columns, and some of the glyphs. The early Christians defaced much of the carvings,as you can see in some of the photos. The cartouche spells out the name of Queen Cleopatra.

Hany then took us to our boat, the MS Amwaj where we checked in to our room. We decided, because the temperature had hit 40 degrees, that we would forego a planned trip to a Nubian Village,and relax by the swimming pool, which was lovely. We had a peaceful afternoon, catching up on some much needed sleep. This evening,we had a buffet dinner and a few drinks, before a Nubian dance show. There was lots of drumming, and dancing by males. We have noticed that there are no women working on this boat that we have seen yet, which is interesting...

The ship departs Aswan in the early hours, and we are meeting our guide Hany at 6am for a tour to a temple, then back for breakfast. We feel fortunate, in that we have Hany to ourselves. There is a big group of 40 or more people (Americans and Brits), and we are glad not to be with them. We did meet a young lady who was so excited to hear our accent - she was in one of the big groups with all older Americans, so she was very happy to talk to us!Okumaya devam et

Philae
29 Kasım 2018, Mısır ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C
Der Legende nach ist Philae der Platz, an dem Isis das Herz ihres Mannes Osiris fand, nachdem – gemäß dem Osirismythos – sein Bruder Seth ihn umgebracht, zerstückelt und die Körperteile im ganzen Land versteckt hatte. Letztlich fanden Isis und ihre Schwester Nephthys alle verstreuten Teile des Osiris und setzten seinen Leichnam wieder zusammen. Doch Osiris wollte nicht mehr im Diesseits bleiben und entschied sich fürs Jenseits. Sozusagen im göttlichen Austausch wurde Isis schwanger und brachte den Gott Horuszur Welt. Die Reliefs im Inneren des Mammisi(Geburtshaus) schildern die Geburt der Gottheit Horus, das Kind und seine Kindheit in den Deltasümpfen.Okumaya devam et

Philae-Tempel
2 Ocak 2022, Mısır ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Durch den Bau des Staudamms musste der Philae-Tempel von der Insel Philae zur 600m entfernten Insel Agilkia versetzt werden. Der Tempel ist der Göttin Isis gewidmet. Eine genaue Datierung war bis jetzt noch nicht möglich, frühste Belege handeln von 370 vor Chr. Der Tempel wurde von den Christen später als Kirche benutzt. Dies sieht man gut an den vielen Kreuzen die eingemeisstelt wurden, aber auch an dem Altar mitten im Tempel. Spannend ist die hyroglyphische Inschrift, diese Hyroglyphen gelten als letzte überhaupt. Ca. 400 nach Chr. wurden diese gemeisstmelt, man sieht bereits die nachlässige Art, und danach starb diese Schrift aus. Die Insel hat auch eine schöne Aussicht zu bieten aber auch noch einige andere Bauwerke. Beispielsweise der Trajans-Kiosk.Okumaya devam et

Nilometers
13 Nisan 2021, Mısır ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
I have known that the pharoahs had a gauge near the 1st cataract to measure the height of the Nile, especially during the annual flood. I had understood this to be a means of knowing whether the flood would be in the optimal range for good crops, too low meaning drought and bad harvests, or too high with destructive floods. It turns out this is only partly true. They were also used to determine taxes, and every city had its own nilometer to gauge the flood in that specific location to accurately determine taxes based on local conditions rather than a generalized single reading. Apparently local conditions varied enough to make this locally important.
The 1st picture is of the one I knew about, one of the 2 at the Philae Temple (see another post) near Aswan below the 1st cataract. The others are at Kom Ombo, Edfu and Hatshepsut's temple on the west side of the Nile at Luxor, respectively. These are all located at temples (see other posts).
I note that the nilometer for Luxor (east bank) would likely be at Old Luxor. As that location has only recently been discovered, excavation is ongoing and not open to visit.
In case you're wondering, one of my responsibilities in a "previous life" involved work in both surface and groundwater hydrology. Hence my interest in 4,000 year old approaches to the scienceOkumaya devam et

Philae
29 Kasım 2018, Mısır ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
Als Perle des Nils wurde der Tempel der Isis auf der Insel Philae gerühmt. Lange hatten die Christen warten müssen, bevor sie Philae übernehmen konnten. Nicht einmal das Edikt des oströmischen Kaisers Theodosius I., mit dem das Christentum zur Staatsreligionerklärt worden war (391), konnte die hartnäckigen Isisverehrer von der Insel vertreiben. Erst 535/37 ließ Kaiser Justinian I.den Tempel gewaltsam schließen und in ein christliches Gotteshaus umfunktionierten, obwohl die Blemmyer noch immer an der Verehrung des Heiligtums festhielten. Der rückwärtige Bereich des Säulenraumes wurde um 553 dem Heiligen Stephan als Kirche geweiht und aus diesem Anlass eine große Zahl der Reliefs im Tempel zerstört.Okumaya devam et

Un tempio dedicato al culto di Iside è costruito da Tolomeo V. Bellissime immagini della grande Dea Iside. Anche questo smontato perché era stato coperto dal Nilo e riedificato a poca distanza.
