Egypt - 2 December 2010; Philae Temple in Egypt, dedicated to Osiris, was originally located near the First Cataract of the Nile River in southern Egypt This area was inundated by the initial construction of the Old Aswan Dam in 1902. The entire temple complex was later dismantled and relocated to nearby Agilkia Island as part of the UNESCO Nubia Campaign project, protecting this and other complexes before the 1970 completion of the Aswan High Dam. The so-called Trajan's Kiosk to the main Temple (also known as Pharaoh's Bed by the locals, is attributed to Trajan, Roman emperor from 98 to 117 AD, due to his depiction as pharaoh seen on some of the interior reliefs.
