Carvings on the wall of the Abu Simbel temple, located a distance away from Aswan

Carvings on the wall of the Abu Simbel temple, located a distance away from Aswan
Some weather worn carvings on the walls of the Abu Simbel temple in south Egypt, located at a distance of 280 Km from the city of Aswan. The temple was built by the mega pharaoh Ramesses II as a reminder to his Nubian neighbors to the south about the immensity of his power, and also a reminder to his people about his being a living god.
This is a photo of some of the carvings on the walls of the temple, and shows a person in action, many many years ago.
