The temples of millions' years
Near ancient Thebes, today's Luxor, beyond the west bank of the Nile, the most important Egyptian pharaohs of the New Kingdom, had colossal and magnificent temples built for their funerary worship. In Abidos, the place of the greatest cult of Osiris, god of the dead, you can admire the imposing cenotaph of Pharaoh Sethi I, father of Ramesses II, which preserves the most splendid painted bas-reliefs in all of Egypt. These funerary temples were called "Temples of millions of years" because, in the intent of the builders, they should have existed for eternity.
