The cut off section of a round pillar inside the Karnak temple in Luxor

The Karnak temple in Luxor is a huge temple complex, with a number of pharaohs having contributed towards building of the temple complex. It was built around 34 centuries back, which is why it is great that the temple still retains many of the structures in fairly good condition. This is one part of the structure that seems to have suffered the ravages of time, with the pillar having been cut in between.
