View of the Temple of Kalabsha built in honour of the god Mandulis, in its original position, and not yet restored. The top of the entrance pylon is in fact not fully stabilised. The temple was moved following the construction of the Aswan Dam and the resulting formation of Lake Nasser, which would have submerged it. The temple was then re-erected in the late 1960s at New Kalabsha, a location on higher ground not far from Aswan. The author's signature is visible at the bottom right.
