EGYPT-ARCHAEOLOGY-RAMSES II
A picture taken in 2002 shows tourists casting their shadows as a ray of light illuminates the statue of Ramses II inside the temple of Abu Simbel, south of Aswan, in upper Egypt. More than 2500 tourists witnessed 22 October 2007 the sun illuminating the inner sanctuary, which happens only twice a year with a wide belief among archaeologists that the two days mark Ramsis II's birthday and day of coronation.
