The Karnak Temple Complex is a huge collection of temples, pylons, chapels, and other structures in varying states of deterioration located near Luxor, Egypt. The name Karnak is derived from the Arabic word Khurnaq, which means “walled settlement.”
The majority of the complex’s surviving structures date to the New Kingdom, which began under the reign of Senusret I (reigned 1971–1926 BCE) (approximately 2000-1700 BCE).
Ipet-isut (“The Most Selected of Places”) was the name given to the area surrounding Karnak during the 18th dynasty of ancient Egypt, and it functioned as the major temple for the Theban Triad, led by the god Amun.
In 1979, it was included on the UNESCO World Heritage List alongside the remainder of the magnificent city of Thebes.
El-Karnak, located 2.5 kilometers (1.6 miles) north of Luxor, derives its name from the adjacent and partially surrounded Karnak complex.
The mortuary temple of Hatshepsut, also known as the Temple of the Holy of Holies (Egyptian: sr-srw), was built during the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt during the reign of Pharaoh Hatshepsut.
This structure, located across the Nile from Luxor, is a must-see for anybody interested in ancient architecture.
Carved within the Deir el-Bahari cliffs, its three vast terraces loom over the dunes below. Her pyramidal mausoleum, El Qurn, is located atop the same mountain range as her tomb, KV20. At the border of the desert, one kilometer to the east is the valley temple, which is connected to the main complex by a causeway. The entire structure confronts Hatshepsut’s most renowned addition to the Temple of Karnak, the massive Eighth Pylon, from which the procession of the Glorious Festival of the Valley began.
The Coptic and Arabic names for the Valley of the Kings are “dme” (also written “dme” in Arabic) and “Wd al-Mulk,” respectively. The Valley of the Kings (Arabic: Wd Abwb al-Mulk) is a valley in Egypt where rock-cut tombs of pharaohs and great nobles of the New Kingdom were dug for more than 500 years, from the 16th to 11th centuries 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, 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.
