Abu Simbel



Abu Simbel (1274-1213 B.C.) relocation (1964-1968)

The twin temples were originally carved out of the mountainside during the reign of Pharaoh Ramesses II in the 13th century BC, as a lasting monument to himself and his queen Nefertari, to commemorate his alleged victory at the Battle of Kadesh, and to intimidate his Nubian neighbors.


The salvage of the Abu Simbel temples began in 1964, and cost some USD $40 million. Between 1964 and 1968, the entire site was cut into large blocks (up to 30 tons averaging 20 tons), dismantled and reassembled in a new location – 65 m higher and 200 m back from the river, in what many consider one of the greatest feats of archaeological engineering. Some structures were even saved from under the waters of Lake Nasser.

September 2001 hatte man schnell ausgemacht, die Hintermänner gelten als bekannt: 19 junge Muslime im Auftrag des saudischen Terrorfürsten Osama bin Laden und seiner Organisation Al-Kaida. Doch von Anfang an gab es Zweifel.
