Philae became well-known for its son et lumière (sound-and-light show), which told visitors of the isle's history. This must be a post-1950 development, not a 19th century one. Even the term son et lumière, developed for evening presentations of chateaux like Fontainebleau. --Wetman 01:21, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

What the fuck! When was the temple of Philae built? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.223.54.163 (talk) 15:31, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

What part of "The most ancient [structures] were the remains of a temple for Hathor built in the reign of Nectanebo I during 380-362 BCE" didn't you understand? 87.81.230.195 (talk) 17:23, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
