Shown in this illustration are the numbers one to nine of strings. In addition to the 1 to 9 of each suit, there are three Honour cards: White Flower, Red Flower and Old Thousand. The game played with these cards requires two full decks, 120 cards in all. The game itself resembled rummy, making up 'runs' of three cards of the same denomination (regardless of suit).
The Karnak temple complex at Luxor developed over more than 1,000 years, principally between the Twelfth and Twentieth Dynasties. It was, at its peak, the largest and most important religious complex in ancient Egypt. The most significant structure, and the largest religious building ever built, is the Temple of Amun-Ra, considered to be where that god lived on earth with his wife, Mut, and son, Khonsu, who also have temples at the site. The Temple of Amun-Ra is particularly famous for the vast Hypostyle Hall constructed during the reign of Seti I.
