Remains of 2 statues inside the walls at the Queen Hatshepsut temple in Deir el Bahari in Egypt

This is a photo of the remains of 2 statues that were placed in alcoves in the front portion of a level at the Queen Hatshepsut temple in Egypt, at Deir el Bahari. These would have been statues of the Pharaoh, and in many cases, such statues were defaced due to wear or tear, or when a successor wanted to erase the memory of this Pharaoh.
