Ancient Tanis
To the south of the Amun Temple, is a smaller enclosure where goddess Mut, god Khonsu and goddess Astarte (an Asiatic goddess) were worshipped. The temple was built by Siamun from the 21st dynasty and Apries from the 26th dynasty. And even later it was restored by Ptolemy IV .
There was found a sacred lake at this site in 2009. It is the second sacred lake found at Tanis.
