EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur and historical significance of the Obelisks of Thutmose I, located in the Festival Hall East of the Karnak Temple Complex in Egypt. Dating back to circa 1504 BCE to 1492 BCE, these ancient obelisks are a testament to the architectural prowess and artistic vision of one of Egypt's most revered pharaohs. Thutmose I, also known as Thothmes or Thutmose, was the fifth Pharaoh of the 18th Dynasty. He is celebrated for his military conquests and his contributions to Egypt's artistic and architectural heritage. The Obelisks of Thutmose I, a pair of obelisks, were originally erected in the open court of the temple, flanking the sacred lake. They were later moved to their current location in the Festival Hall East during the reign of Queen Hatshepsut (1507-1458 BCE). The obelisks, with their tapering shape and intricately carved hieroglyphics, are a stunning example of ancient Egyptian art and engineering. The hieroglyphics depict scenes from Thutmose I's reign, including his military campaigns and religious rituals. The obelisks were also believed to represent the phallus of the god Ra, symbolizing the renewal of life and fertility. This photograph, taken in the 1910s, offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the remains of these magnificent obelisks as they stand amidst the ruins of the Karnak Temple Complex. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the beauty and mystery of ancient Egypt.
