Sections of columns and elaborately inscribed reliefs from an ancient Egyptian temple were recently discovered behind the walls of a mosque in Luxor. The oval relief, or cartouche, at center depicts the name of Ramses II, the pharaoh in whose name the temple was built around 1250 B.C. -- Photograph courtesy Zahi Hawass, Supreme Council of Antiquities

At least they didn’t blow it up like they destroyed the ancient Buddhist statues.
Reminds me of the gorillas in Planet of the Apes who had a “forbidden zone” that they refused to let the populace see because they couldn’t “handle the truth” that Man once spoke and had technology.

It just goes to prove that we Freemasons were there first. Allah came much, much later.
