Deir Al-Bahri Tuthosis III Cartouche
This column, and others, were replaced - the orginal columns were round not square - by Tuthmosis III; who then proceeded to place his cartouche all over the place. Nice huh?

Dier Al-Bahri
This was a temple Hatshepsut - the only Egyptian female pharoah - had built by her architect, Senenmut. It is an impressive mortuary temple consisting of three imposing terraces. There is quite a bit of defacing on the temple walls (probably committed by Tuthmosis III her successor, and a spoiled sport if you don\'t mind my saying so) because being a female pharoah was kind of taboo.
