Ramses III temple
The courtyard from the Temple of King Ramses III. Located on the right side of the first court (Ethiopian Court) of the precinct of Amun-Re at Karnak Temple Complex.
The pylon, flanked by two six meter high statues of the Pharaoh, leads to this courtyard surrounded by a portico of Osiris columns, showing ‘Ramses III’ in his Jubilee garments.
It is a typical example of architecture in the Ramesside period.
Beyond the courtyard is a vestibule also fronted by Osiris columns, leading into a small hypostyle hall which in turn leads into three chapels for the barques of Karnak 🏛️🇪🇬🌍

chronology of ancient Egypt
archeologists and historians they depend on three methods to know the chronology of ancient Egypt :
1- stratigraphic excavandence
2- astronomical records
3- radiocarbon
We depend on what the ancient Egyptian left on walls of their temples and their records inside their grave and tools that they left and by comparing it with what had been written by Greeks historians and astronomical records like Palermo stone we got more information about history of Egypt predynastic and prehistory of ancient Egyptian
actually Palermo stone it's important for us because it doesn't record just the name of kings and number of their years that they ruled Egypt but also recorded the important events that happened in their years in horizontal tables from prehistory and the united of north kingdom and south kingdom till the 5th dynasty also we have artefacts they are great evidence that gives us great information about the mysterious of building such magnificent civilization in history .
