Jackie Kennedy & Abu Simbel

Jacqueline KennedyIn the 1960s the dramatic, ancient Pharaonic temple Abu Simbel was  threatened by the rising waters blocked by the new Aswan High Dam. First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy provided crucial support for the mammoth rescue project. Without her help, Abu Simbel might have been lost. Times change, leaders come and go, but some acts of support and generosity are remembered through the decades. First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy loved Egypt, and Egypt still loves her.

Royal feluccas and Dahabbiyas bore a larger-than-life image of the pharaoh, seated on a throne, to be seen and venerated by inhabitants even along the most remote canal. In turn, imbued with the same “ka,” or spirit, as the living pharaoh himself, it would keep watch over his subjects and their activities.

    • Egypt and Jordan Tour: January. Hi Omar, of course you may use my comments. I completely recommend the use of your company, your service has been excellent particularly with the small amount of time we had to prepare. Some of my interpretations may just be cultural differences, it was hard to tell.....but this is why we travel, to learn about different cultures. Many Thanks.
