Remains of stone and red bricks temple. It is the presumed site of the Per-neser (sanctuary of the royal uraeus goddess Wadjet and the great Ennead). Test excavations in 2002 failed to find a single stone in situ, so the temple still remains hypothetical, although its presence in the general area is confirmed by a text preserved in B 1200 www.jebelbarkal.org/
