EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1904, showcases the breathtaking sight of the Memnon Colossi standing guard at the entrance to Pharaoh Amenhotep III's mortuary temple in Thebes, Egypt. The Colossi, two massive stone statues representing Amenhotep III, have been captivating visitors for centuries. Greek travellers, in particular, likened these sentinel statues to the legendary Ethiopian king Memnon, as they believed the statues emitted a sound at dawn. The Colossi, each standing over 18 meters tall, are adorned with intricate carvings and inscriptions, showcasing the grandeur and power of the ancient Egyptian civilization. The mortuary temple, which the statues protect, was built during the 18th Dynasty and is a testament to the architectural and artistic achievements of the time. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the past and transports us back to a time when the ancient world was still shrouded in mystery and wonder.
