About Kom Ombo Temple
The Temple of Kom Ombo is an unusual double temple in the town of Kom Ombo in Aswan Governorate, Upper Egypt. It was constructed during the Ptolemaic dynasty, 180–47 BC. Some additions to it were later made during the Roman period. In ancient times, Kom Ombo was called NBU, meaning "Gold". Later, the Greeks and Romans called it OMBOS. In Arabic, "Kom" means mound, so Kom Ombo means "Mound of Gold".
