RickCollier > Aswan, Egypt -- Philae Temple -- Boats wait at Agilika Island, site today of the Philae Temple ("Temple of Philae"), for their passengers to be ready to return to the main town. The original island location of Philae was submerged by the building of the Aswan High Dam, so the temple was relocated and is now visited on the island Agilika. The island temple can only be reached by hiring these "water taxis." © Rick Collier / RickCollier.com. travel; vacation; tour; tourism; tourist; destination; Aswan; dam; "Aswan dam"; "High Dam"; Nile; river; "Nile River"; Philae; "Philae Temple"; Hathor; Ptolemy; Ptolemaic; Agilika; temple; hieroglyphic; hieroglyph; "ancient Egypt"; boat; boatmen; boats; ferry; taxi;
RickCollier > Aswan, Egypt -- The Philae Temple was built on a small island just above the first cataracts in the Nile River. The site of a temple dedicated to the cow god Hathor, this temple site was held sacred by both northern (Theban) and sourthern (Nubian) dynasties. The temple complex as now viewed was actually built and used in the later Ptolemaic and subsequent Roman dynasties. The original island location was submerged by the building of the Aswan High Dam, so the temple was relocated and is now visited on the island Agilika. Before being relocated, the temple was partially submerged for many years, and a water line can be observed on some of the pylon walls. © Rick Collier / RickCollier.com. travel; vacation; tour; tourism; tourist; destination; Aswan; dam; "Aswan dam"; "High Dam"; Nile; river; "Nile River"; Philae; "Philae Temple"; Hathor; Ptolemy; Ptolemaic; Agilika; temple; hieroglyphic; hieroglyph; "ancient Egypt";
