Temple of Kom Ombo - The Kom Ombo Temple is located in Kom Ombo in the Aswan Governorate, southern Egypt. The temple was established during the reign of Ptolemy VI to worship the gods Sobek and Horus. The temple area has recently been renovated and restored. This temple was established during the reign of Ptolemy VI Philomator, but its decoration was only completed in the Roman era at the time of Emperor Tiberius, and we see in this temple also the same features that we find in other Ptolemaic Egyptian temples in terms of design, architecture and decoration. However, this temple has a special feature that resulted from Local worship in the place, where people used to worship two local deities, namely Sobek and Horus with the head of a falcon, and although these two deities differed in origin and character, they lived side by side for centuries without mixing or bonding with each other.
