The "Philae" temples were originally built to worship the goddess Isis.

The great temple was built during the third century B.C. and was followed by the temples of Amenhotep and Arsenovis. As for the temple of Hathor, it is considered the last Ptolemaic monument, and its construction was completed before 116 B.C. by Eorgets II.
