EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Ethel Davies in 1984, showcases the enigmatic Ramesseum, a memorial temple nestled in the Theban Necropolis on the western bank of the Nile in Luxor, Egypt. Dating back to the 13th century BC, this ancient structure was dedicated to Pharaoh Ramesses II, also known as Rameses the Great or Usermaatra Setepenre. The Ramesseum, a significant part of the vast Karnak complex, stands as a testament to the grandeur and power of the Egyptian civilization during the New Kingdom period. The temple's intricate carvings and colossal statues, once vibrant with color, now bear the marks of time, reflecting the passage of centuries. Ramesses II, the powerful pharaoh who ruled Egypt from 1279 BC to 1213 BC, is renowned for his military conquests and religious reforms. His mortuary temple, the Ramesseum, was built to ensure his eternal life and to honor the gods, particularly the Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu. The temple's name, Ramesseum, is derived from the pharaoh's name, Rameses, which translates to 'Ra, the great one.' This temple, along with the nearby tomb of Ozymandias, adds to the allure of the ancient Egyptian civilization, which continues to captivate our imagination and inspire wonder. Ethel Davies' photograph, taken in the 1980s, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and cultural significance of the Ramesseum and the ancient Egyptian civilization. The image, filled with the colors and concepts of the 13th century BC and the 1980s, is a stunning reminder of the enduring connection between the past and the present.
