Temple of Edfu
The inner hall is covered with reliefs of the various festivals for the gods. The triad worshiped here includes Horus, Hathor, and Ihy (instaedo the Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu).
The hypostyle hall is from the reign of Ptolemy VII and contained a library with hundreds of papryus documents when the temple was excavated. Many of the reliefs have been defaced.
