Karnak originally derived from Arabic: Khurnaq “fortified village”, commonly known as the Karnak Temple Complex, is a large collection of temples, pylons, chapels, and other structures in various states of disrepair located near Luxor, Egypt.
Most of the surviving structures from the complex belong to the New Kingdom, which began under the reign of Senusret I (reigned 1971-1926 BCE) in the Middle Kingdom (approximately 2000-1700 BCE).
Ipet-isut (“The Most Chosen of Places”) was the name given to the territory around Karnak during the 18th dynasty of ancient Egypt, and it served as the primary temple for the Theban Triad, which was headed by the god Amun.
It was listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1979 along with the rest of the great city of Thebes.

Located 2.5 km (1.6 mi) north of Luxor, the modern settlement of El-Karnak gets its name from the neighboring and partially encircled Karnak complex.

The mortuary temple of Hatshepsut, also known as the Temple of the Holy of Holies (Egyptian: sr-srw), was constructed during the reign of Pharaoh Hatshepsut of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt.
Situated across the Nile from Luxor, this structure is a must-see for anybody interested in ancient architecture.

Built into the cliffs of Deir el-Bahari, its three enormous terraces tower high over the sands below.
Her pyramidal tomb, El Qurn, sits atop a mountain range that also contains her tomb, KV20.
One kilometer (0.62 miles) to the east, at the desert’s edge, is the valley temple that is linked to the main complex via a causeway.
Across the Nile, the entire building faces Hatshepsut’s most famous addition to the Temple of Karnak: the enormous Eighth Pylon, from which the procession of the Glorious Festival of the Valley set out.

The Coptic name for the Valley of the Kings is “dme” (also spelled “dme” in Arabic), and the Arabic name is “Wd al-Mulk.”
The Valley of the Kings (Arabic: Wd Abwb al-Mulk)[1] is a valley in Egypt where rock-cut tombs were excavated for pharaohs and great nobles of the New Kingdom for over 500 years, from the 16th to 11th century BC (the Eighteenth to the Twentieth Dynasties of Ancient Egypt).

The two enormous stone sculptures of Pharaoh Amenhotep III known as the Colossi of Memnon (Arabic: el-Colossat or es-Salamat) stand in front of the now-destroyed Mortuary Temple of Amenhotep III, the grandest temple in the Theban Necropolis.
The Greeks, Romans, and early modern explorers and Egyptologists all knew about these landmarks because they had stood since 1350 BC.
Between the years 20 and 250 AD, 107 Greek and Latin inscriptions were carved into the sculptures; many of these inscriptions refer to the Greek mythological king Memnon, whom the statue was mistakenly assumed to depict at the time.

How the Greek name for the entire Theban Necropolis, the Memnonium, relates to the identification of the northern colossus as “Memnon” is a topic of heated controversy among experts.
