When the temples 280 km from Aswan were threatened by submersion in Lake Nasser, due to the construction of the High Dam, the Egyptian Government launched a world wide appeal. During the salvage operation which began in 1964 until 1968, the two temples were dismantled and raised over 60 metres up the sandstone cliff where they had been built more than 3,000 years before. Here they were reassembled and covered with an artificial mountain.
