Images in this photo gallery are from the Temple of Kom Ombo, beautifully set on a bend in the river Nile forty-five kilometres north of Aswan. Dating from 180 BC in the Ptolemaic period, the Temple of Kom Ombo is two temples in one and dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon god Haroeris (a form of Horus). Its layout is like Edfu, though not as well preserved.
