Le complexe religieux de Karnak —abusivement appelé temple de Karnak ou tout simplement Karnak— comprend un vaste ensemble de ruines de temples, chapelles, pylônes, et d’autres bâtiments situés au nord de Thèbes, aujourd’hui la ville de Louxor1, en Égypte, sur la rive droite du Nil.
Le complexe de Karnak, reconstruit et développé pendant plus de 2 000 ans par les pharaons successifs, de Sésostris Ier au Moyen Empire à l’époque ptolémaïque, s’étend sur plus de deux km², et est composé de trois enceintes. Il est le plus grand complexe religieux de toute l’Antiquité.
Temple le plus important de la XVIIIe dynastie, il était consacré à la triade thébaine avec à sa tête le dieu Amon-Rê. Le complexe était relié au temple de Louxor par une allée de sphinx de près de trois kilomètres de long.
Site touristique, il est classé au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO depuis 1979. Seule l’enceinte d’Amon peut être visitée. Le site fait l’objet de fouilles conduites dès le xixe siècle par des Français, organisés depuis 1967 au sein du Centre franco-égyptien d'étude des temples de Karnak. Les découvertes continuent à être nombreuses
Teotihuacan is one of the most famous and important sites of ancient Mexico, best known for it's enormous Avenue of the Dead and the great pyramids of the Sun and Moon.
Although the site was known in Aztec times as the 'Birthplace of the Gods' it is actually significantly older, with most of the major structures built between 100-250AD and the city, one of the largest ever ancient settlements in the Americas, was believed to have been still inhabited up to the 8th century.
Today the vast scale of the complex, particularly the so called Avenue of the Dead, nearly 3km long and flanked by ancient ruins and terraces, continues to awe visitors. At the north end of the Avenue sits the Pyramid of the Moon, whilst it's much larger counterpart, the Pyramid of the Sun, sits halfway up it's eastern side. At the southern end sits the Ciudadela complex which centres on the smaller pyramid of Quetzelcoatl, earlier and more ruined than the larger pyramids but retaining it's stunning original sculptural decoration on part of it's western face, featuring the iconic feathered serpent heads.
Aside from the great ceremonial structures there are also residential buildings, particularly the palatial complex at the north west corner that retains some vivid fragments of it's original mural decoration.
The 2022 Kimble Complex Fire was the largest wildfire in Wayne National Forest history. It started out as several smaller wildfires on a day with enhanced fire weather conditions, grew into a single large wildfire, and then blew up in size as fire weather conditions worsened. By the end, it burned 1,338 acres and took dozens of wildland firefighters, multiple fire engines, dozers, and more to contain. The cause of the wildfire remains under investigation.
The Kimble Complex Fire came on the heels of dozens of small and medium size wildfires that occurred throughout southeast Ohio during the fall fire season. Between October 8 and November 22, our wildland firefighters responded to an average of 1.5 wildfires a day.
We rely on you to be fire aware and help prevent wildfires in the first place! Know your state and local fire laws, follow the statewide 6 AM to 6 PM burn bans during the spring and fall fire seasons, never leave fires unattended, and always put fires completely out until they are cool to the touch. Remember, only YOU can help prevent wildfires!

Calciocarbonatite in the Precambrian of Ontario, Canada.
Carbonatites are rare igneous rocks - they are composed of carbonate minerals, typically calcite (CaCO3 - calcium carbonate). Carbonatites are essentially igneous limestones.
The four categories of carbonatites are:
1) calciocarbonatite (calcite-dominated)
2) magnesiocarbonatite (dolomite-dominated)
3) ferrocarbonatite (siderite-dominated)
4) natrocarbonatite (sodium carbonate-dominated)
Calciocarbonatites are the most common type. Natrocarbonatites are extremely rare, and are only found at Ol Doinyo Lengai Volcano in eastern Africa.
The orangish brown-weathering rocks are part of a calciocarbonatite dike. Freshly broken surfaces are dark gray or mottled light gray to light brown. The surrounding host rocks are greenstones (phyllitic in part) of the Michipicoten Greenstone Belt. The metamorphic rocks in the greenstone belt experienced greenschist to amphibolite facies regional metamorphism at 2.65 to 2.7 billion years ago. Black-colored, finely-crystalline contact metamorphic zones occur next to the dikes.
The calciocarbonatites here are slightly radioactive. The dikes are probably a northern extension of the Firesand River Carbonatite Complex (also known as Firesand Creek), which occurs due south of this roadcut.
Geologic unit: Firesand River Carbonatite Complex, late Mesoproterozoic, 1.078 Ga
Locality: Wawa Lake East Outcrop - roadcut on the northern & southern sides of Route 101, between the eastern end of Wawa Lake and the northwestern end of Ghost Lake, northeast of the town of Wawa, Michipicoten Greenstone Belt, Ontario, Canada (48° 01' 44.09" North latitude, 84° 40' 05.91" West longitude)

The Bacardi Complex in was constructed in 1963 and served as the first United States headquarters for the Bacardi corporation, a Cuban company notable for its rum. The Bacardi complex consists of two prominent buildings, the main tower and the Bacardi Imports Administration Annex building that was completed in 1973. The buildings are iconic examples of mid-century modern International-style architecture, notable for their uses of steel and glass, each featuring imaginative cantilevered overhangs as the bulk of the building. They are each emblazoned with artistic products, with the tower decorated with over 28,000 azulejo tiles painted and assembled by Brazilian artist Francisco Brennand. The Annex building’s four walls are entirely defined by stained-glass windows manufactured by French artists Gabriel and Jacques Loire based upon a painting by German artist Johannes Dietz. The buildings are notable for the way they embrace international influences within architecture and art to create visually impressive works.
Since the establishment of the company in 1862 in Santiago de Cuba, the business has successfully expanded the branding, production, and headquarter sites outside of Cuba. Bacardi’s buildings in Miami have aimed to create and promote a visual identity for the corporation, one which is simultaneously past and forward-looking, with an appreciation of the natural and the man-made. Bacardi’s buildings are attempts to express concepts larger than mere business, combining art and architecture to tell a larger story.

The Lower Trout Lake Bathhouse Complex and Contact Station includes five Mid-Century Modern resources, located on
two separate land parcels, in the same section of the Bald Mountain Recreation Area in Orion Township. The Lower Trout Lake Bathhouse Complex and Contact Station was designed in the mid-1960s by internationally renowned Michigan
architect Gunnar Birkerts. The larger of the two parcels of land contains a bathhouse complex of four closely spaced circular buildings – Men’s and Women’s Bathhouses, a Concession Stand, and a Pump House – all grouped within a large
circular pad of concrete pavement set back from the beach at Lower Trout Lake. The nomination also includes a small round Contact Station or “control booth” located about 4,600 feet away on the entrance road into this southern section of
the Bald Mountain Recreation Area. The buildings are closely related by their circular forms, concrete construction, and,
before vandals stripped them, copper roofs.
The Lower Trout Lake Bathhouse Complex and Contact Station is significant under criteria A and C. It is a set of Park
Service Modern buildings inspired by the nationwide Mission 66 program. The buildings were designed by world renowned architect Gunnar Birkerts who is known for his high-style modern structures. The Lower Trout Lake Bathhouse Complex and Contact Station’s structures are examples of two complimentary forms of mid-century modern design; one, a style of park building known as Park Service Modern, made popular by the National Park Service and the Mission 66 program architects; the other, the distinctive architectural style produced by Gunnar Birkerts at the time, during the beginning of the busiest point in his career. The buildings are less than fifty years old, yet because of their unique design, association with a
nation-wide program, and were designed by a master architect; they are eligible for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places at the National level.
The Lower Trout Lake Bathhouse Complex and
Contact Station was listed in the National Register of HIstoric Places on September 3, 2013.
Oehler Mill Complex
Shelby, Wisconsin
Listed 5/22/2013
Reference Number: 13000314
The Oehler Mill Complex is being nominated to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) for its local significance under National Register (NR) Criterion C, architecture. It is significant at the local level with a period of significance of 1862-1907, dates encompassing the construction of the mill and the associated buildings of the milling complex. Research was undertaken to assess this potential utilizing the NR significance area of Architecture, a theme that is also identified in the State of Wisconsin's Cultural Resource Management Plan (CRMP). This research centered on evaluating the resources in the Complex utilizing the Italianate Style and Stone Construction subsections of the Architectural Styles study unit, and the Milling subsection of the Industry study unit portions of the CRMP. 17 The results of this research are detailed below and determined that the Complex's fine stone and brick Astylistic Utilitarian Vernacular Form flour mill building and its two fine associated brick Italianate style houses are locally significant under Criterion C, architecture. The mill is a now exceptionally rare example of an early rural flour and grist mill and its significance is heightened by the fact that the houses of Valentine Oehler and Gottfried Oehler, the two brothers who built it and ran it, are both extant and are situated on either side of it.
