Early Christian / Coptic Remains at Philae

Philae remained an active center of Isis worship into Late Antiquity. The last dated hieroglyphic inscription was carved in 394 CE, and the temple complex was later closed under Byzantine rule and parts of it were converted for Christian worship. Christian crosses, inscriptions and church remains preserve this later phase. The previous record should avoid presenting every named church or fresco as securely preserved unless tied to a specific excavated structure.
