Temple of Kom Ombo
The water level in the well was used to determine taxes for the local population.
If the well was dry, no taxes as it indicated a draught. The higher the water the more tax, unless the well was full, which indicated flooding and again no taxes. (5 years and 2557 days ago)
lovely
Thank you. I felt the cemetery was actually kind of a time marker as well.....
Howdie stranger!
