Summary
| Description |
English: Semna was built 35 km south of the 2nd Nile-cataract as a fortified area by Sesostris III (12. Dyn., c. 1860 BC). Thutmose III (18. Dyn, 1450 BC) added a temple honouring the nubian god Dedwen, that was disassemble in 1965 und re-erected in Sudan National Museum in Khartoum. On the opposite banks of the Nile there is the fortification of Kumma - both submerged in the Nubian Lake, part of the Nasser Lake. George A. Reisner investigated them in the late 1920s.

Chr.) ließ einen Tempel zu Ehren des nubischen Gottes Dedwen bauen, der 1965 zerlegt wurde und im National Museum Sudan ausgestellt wird. Auf der anderenSeite des Nils liegt die Kumma - beide versunken im Nubia-See, Teil des Nassersees. George A. Reisner untersuchte sie in den 1920er Jahren. |
