Edfou.The Temple of Horus.
Edfou Temple complex represents a great
interest and requires a detailed study of each element, from the
inscriptions and stone-carvings, up to the architectural roof
constructions and underground crypts. To examine everything at once -
was really an impossible task. Therefore, we decided to study each
individual part of the building in a greater detail. Thus, during the
expedition December-2012, the special attention was paid to the
underground crypts.
