Stop 2

The Kom Ombo Temple has a story that summarizes that there was a ruler named Ambo and he had an only son, and he was blessing him one day with one of the priests.
One of the priests predicted to his son that he would die in his youth, and the child grew up with his father, and the prophecy still terrifies the ruling father, so he approached all the gods in order to save his son from death.
When the son was swimming in the Nile River, a large crocodile preyed on him and killed him. The father got very angry and set up a large crocodile trap.
Where he dug next to the riverbed a path to which the water flows so that he can pounce on the crocodiles, and he used to take the killed crocodiles and mummify them and hang them on the walls of the temple in the hope that it would relieve his pain and grief over his only son.
