It was the burial site of almost all the pharaohs of the New Kingdom (1550-1080 BC).

The Karnak Temple:
The Karnak temple complex is the largest religious complex ever built in the universe. The “Karnak” is the Arabic for “the fort” or “the protected area” but the complex was known as ” pr _ Imn” or” the house of Amon” for the ancient Egyptians. After that, the name was changed by the Greeks to “ipt _ swt” or “the northern thrones”. The complex was dedicated to the god Imn,” the hidden “, who was just a little, unknown local deity. When Luxor became the capital of Egypt, the god’s importance was increased. He then became like a national god. He was the creator, the sustainer, and the lord of the gods.
