Légende
'Columns of the great temple of Sethos I, Abydos, Egypt', 1905. 'This temple within which we are standing was built in the fourteenth century BC and contained shrines to Osiris and the other great gods of Egypt besides one for the deified Sethos himself. This immediate neighbourhood had even then been for many centuries one of the most sacred places in the whole land because of a tradition that the god Osiris himself had been buried here.' Stereoscopic card. Detail. From a series called Egypt Through the Stereoscope, text by James H Breasted.
