Block with large amount of carvings inside the Karnak temple in Luxor

Block with large amount of carvings inside the Karnak temple in Luxor
One of the great things about ancient Egyptian architecture is the fact that a large number of the monuments from that era (which can be as much as 45 centuries back) retain some amount of the work done. So, there are temples which retain some of the structure, pillars that have a lot of the carvings still there, paintings that retain the form and still appear clear.
In this case, you can see a section of stone with the carvings (deep carvings in the stone) that seem very clear and anybody who can read the language is able to understand the writing clearly.
