Lantern Slide with black and white photograph of the shrine inside the Horus Temple at Edfu. This shrine dates to the graeco-roman period (but would have had earlier predecessors) and is – as far as we know – in situ. The reliefs on the surrounding walls show scenes of the king making offerings to the gods of Edfu.
A man wearing traditional Egyptian garments is standing next to the shrine.
