The
Temple of Edfu is an Egyptian temple located on the west bank of the
Nile in Edfu, Upper Egypt. The city was known in the Hellenistic period
in Koinē Greek: Ἀπόλλωνος πόλις and in Latin as Apollonopolis Magna,
after the chief god Horus, who was identified as Apollo under the
interpretatio graeca. It is one of the best preserved shrines in Egypt.
The temple was built in the Ptolemaic Kingdom between 237 and 57 BC. The
inscriptions on its walls provide important information on language,
myth and religion during the Hellenistic period in Egypt. In particular,
the Temple's inscribed building texts "provide details [both] of its
construction, and also preserve information about the mythical
interpretation of this and all other temples as the Island of Creation.
