Egypt finds second pier at ancient temple complex

Egyptian archaeologists have discovered a pier used by ancient
Egyptians to access the Karnak temple complex during the dry season
in the southern city of Luxor, the Egyptian government said on
Monday. The discovery was further evidence of the importance the
complex held in the religious life of ancient Egypt, as other temples
had a single dock, according to archaeologist Mansour Boraik, who led
the expedition that uncovered the dock..........
