An incredible hallway in a side chapel of the Medinat Habu temple, on the west bank of Luxor. The hall wound around an inner sanctuary in a horshoe sense, with a width of no more than 2 feet, and hyroglyphs stretching from ceiling to floor in columns packed in ways that would make sardines claustrophobic.




Some colour preserved on outdoor reliefs in Medinat Habu. In most temples, all the colours have faded or eroded down to the stone.

Among the ruins, trying to gauge the size of Rameses II's ego (that's one of his old collapsed statues, of himself of course, with his head behind me and my hand on his shoulder)
