This volume publishes the scenes and texts of the Ramesside Temple at Amara West in Sudan. It was excavated by an EES expedition during the 1938-39 season, followed by the excavation of the West Gate between 1947 and 1949. The main decoration dates to the reign of Ramesses II, although most of his Twentieth Dynasty successors are also attested in added texts and scenes. Of particular interest are those that feature Ramesside viceroys of Kush, some of whom are known only from their depictions in this temple.
