The monolithic statue of Ramses to the left of the temple entrance is broken in two--the result of an earthquake in antiquity. The head is lying face down at the feet of the statue. In this closeup shot of the leg you can see thousands of years worth of graffiti carved into Ramses legs. The Greek inscription was allegedly carved by mercenaries in the 6th century BC. This footage was recorded June 11, 2012.
