Erected by Pharoah Ptolemy III Euergetes, who ruled Egypt from 246 to 221 BCE, this monumental sandstone portal serves as a ceremonial entrance within the precinct of Amun-Ra at Karnak.
To the reverse an equally impressive image of the Avenue of Sphinxes and the first pylon of the Temple of Karnak which was built by Nectanebo I (380-362 B.C.). Although it was never finished this great gateway to the West of the temple complex continues to be the main entrance to this day. The Avenue of the Sphinxes connects the Temples of Luxor and Karnak forming part of the processional routes that turned the whole of Thebes into a ritual landscape during festival time.
