Temple Wood Stone Circle at Kilmartin Glen in Argyll - one of several important prehistoric monuments in the area. The site was ‘remodelled’ in the Bronze Age and has a burial cist at its centre. 📸 My own. #StandingStoneSunday #Prehistory #Archaeology #Kilmartin #Argyll

This beautiful statue depicts priest Ramose and an altar with two falcon heads. It was found in Armant, Egypt. It was probably given to the cult temple of the god Montu who was the god of war in ancient Egypt.
