Temple of Osiris

This is an example of a temple that was built for the gods, in this case, Osiris. Many temples were built in the place where this temple was found. All of them were extensively adorned with pottery offerings and were probably substitutes for living sacrifices that were made inside the temple.

On an indeterminate date, a great cleansing of the temple offerings would have been made, leaving it as we can see today. To appreciate it better, go around it to observe the symbols drawn that show different scenes of the god's life.
