Temple of Umm Ubayd
Temple of Umm Ubayd, EGplace
This almost totally ruined temple was dedicated to Amun. It was originally connected to the Temple of the Oracle by a causeway and was used during oracle rituals. Nineteenth-century travellers got to see more of it than we can; a Siwan governor blew up the temple in 1896 in order to construct the town’s modern mosque and police building.
