Temples surrounded by the remains of a village with cracked walls and collapsed roofs, and a slowly decaying minaret.

To tell the truth, little remains of the temple where Alexander the Great came to consult the oracles, the High Priests having agreed to recognise in his person a divine filiation, that of the son of Amon (331 BC). But the site alone is worth all the detours and contours leading to this promontory. Around the temple are the remains of a village with cracked walls and collapsed roofs, from which emerges a slowly decaying minaret. Tortuous passageways, cellars and terraces intermingle on as many levels as there are houses.

Date de 600 AC environ, c'est à dire l'époque pharaonique, dédié à Amun. Il ne reste pas grand chose, mais c'est une des ruines à faire aux alentours du village de Siwa
