Interior, Temple of Mut (B 300), Jebel Barkal, Sudan, North-east Africa
The eastern wall of the second rock-cut chamber, showing Amun followed by Mut and Khonsu, the god of the moon. Khonsu loved to gamble - he once lost five days of moonlight to the sky goddess Nut in a game of senate, allowing her to give birth to her five children. (Hand-held camera, by torchlight)
