DESCRIPTION

Philae is the name of an island located on the Nile River, eleven kilometers south of Aswan, in Egypt. It is famous for the temples erected during the Pharaonic, Ptolemaic and Roman periods dedicated to the worship of the goddess Isis that spread throughout the Mediterranean, maintaining its veneration in the temple of Philae until it was banned in the time of Justinian I, the year 535.
