Epigraphy: Recording the Temple of Seti and the Osireon at Abydos, New Kingdom - a collaboration
“In the season of 1925-6 the Egypt Exploration Society, after excavating for some years exclusively at El-Amarna, decided to transfer its activities to Abydos, where the uncovering of the Osireion, interrupted by the war, urgently demanded completion. For this task the Committee engaged the services of Mr. Herbert Felton, who to many years' experience as a practical engineer added the further qualification of being a photographer of high standing.”
Various photographers, Egyptologists and institutions came together to record the significant New Kingdom temple of Seti I and the Osireon monument behind it at Abydos.

ReplyDeleteDolly Mohamed doddy I agree. Not only is it a very beautiful temple it has so many unusual features to puzzle us and contribute to our understanding. Other features I like about this temple are the multiple shrines and the King Lists.
