Kiosk of Qertassi
A few steps from the temple of Kalabsha stand the remains of the Roman Kiosk of Qertassi. Originally located almost twenty miles south of the High Dam, it may have been a station on a processional route of the sacred barque of Isis.
Christiane Desroches-Noblecourt was the most outstanding Egyptologist of the 20th c. Her books are wonderfully readable, bringing Ancient Egypt to life.
She was a great teacher and Curator. May she rest in peace.
