About three kilometers from Temple of Luxor stands the vast monumental area of Karnak, which the Greeks called Hermonthis. The archaeological site includes three divided areas separated by a rough brick boundary. In time, the dimensions of each area / complex changed and the Pharaohs who succeeded to the throne left their mark by extending the temple or adding halls and chapels. The structure of the three holy complexes remains the same, one is dedicated to Amon and is astounding of it dimensions. Luxor Temple, all that remains of its glorious past is the temple that the ancient Egyptians built to the glory of Amon ra, king of the gods, and which they called "Southern harem of Amon". Brought back to light in 1883 by Gaston Maspéro, the temple is 260 meters long and its construction was basically commissioned by two Pharaohs, Amon-Ofis III who started it in the XIV century B.C. and Ramses II who completed it adding the porticoed courtyard with its axis moved eastwards, and no longer north-south as in the case of the rest of the temples. The temple of Luxor was joined to that of karnak by a long stone-paved dromos, a drome and a processional avenue, flanked by sphinxes with ram's heads that the XXX Dynasty replaced with sphinxes with human heads.
