The Deir Al -Shilouet Temple
It was built by Ramses II during the reign of the XIX dynasty. The privileged location of the temple is probably because the river, as it approaches the Kursk bend, runs in an 'unnatural' direction towards the southeast. It was dedicated to the god Ra-horakhti.

The first visitors saw the temple on its old site, and the temple itself was first studied and published on it by Alward Blackman in 1913.
