Temple of Dendur #2l

Here's Pharaoh in front of his temple. It must have been the Nile flood season since Pharaoh has his raincoat. Some of the carvings on the stones are ancient Egyptian artwork, but others are graffiti by British soldiers. Can you tell which is which? Hint: the Latin alpabet didn't exist in 15 BC when the temple was built. (The origin of the Latin alphabet.) "The heiroglyphics on the wall they tell it all." --Voodoo Glow Skulls
