Support efforts for Luxor's Habu Temple

The article discusses the support and development efforts for the Temple of Habu in Luxor, known as the "Temple of Millions of Years." It is considered one of the largest and most important fortified temples in Ancient Egypt. Recent procedures included comprehensive restorations through cleaning processes, removing dust and calcifications, restoring the original colors of the carvings, strengthening the walls and facades, as well as reassembling damaged sections and providing facilities for people with disabilities. As part of modern conservation efforts, the ultrasonic VOSS.SONIC 2000 device was used for the first time in the temple to repel unwanted birds and animals, helping to preserve the integrity of the carvings and colors. These steps are part of the Egyptian government's plan to preserve and technologically enhance the archaeological site, with operations ongoing from March 2022 to May 2023, involving Egyptian experts and specialists. All of this aims to preserve a temple that is over 5,200 years old, featuring inscriptions and reliefs depicting the story of the wars of King Ramesses III, while reducing environmental impacts and protecting the site from animal threats.
