Summary

Description
العربية: شُيد معبد الأقصر لعبادة آمون رع وزوجته موت وابنهما خونسو؛ وهي الأرباب التي يطلق عليها أيضا لقب الثالوث الطيبي (ثالوث طيبة). تم تشييد معبد الأقصر في عهد ملوك الأسرة الثامنة عشر، والأسرة التاسعة عشرة. وأهم الأبنية القائمة بالمعبد هي تلك التي شيدها الملكان أمنحوتب الثالث (1397-1360 ق.م.) ورمسيس الثاني (1290-1223 ق.م.) (الذي أضاف إلى المعبد الفناء المفتوح والصرح والمسلتين). كما أقام الملك تحتمس الثالث (1490-1436 ق.م.) مقاصير لزوار ثالوث طيبة المقدس، كما قام توت عنخ آمون (1348-1337 ق.م.) باستكمال نقوش جدرانه. وقد دمرت المقصورة الثلاثية التي كانت قد شيدت من قبل في عهد الملكة حتشبسوت والملك تحتمس الثالث (من الأسرة الثامنة عشرة)؛ ثم أعيد بناؤها في عهد الملك رمسيس الثاني.
