Sanctuary of Sobek

Kom Ombo’s present double temple was built in the Greco-Roman period, with the earliest attested royal name being Ptolemy VI and much of the decoration completed under Ptolemy XII. The southern axis and sanctuary were dedicated to Sobek, while the northern axis belonged to Haroeris. The previous attribution to Ptolemy II is too early for the surviving temple.
