my slides, I exactly remember a place but not its name.
Where did I come across this small temple? it must have been near Aswan (Egypt) and the head of Hathor is clearly visible on the left. Maybe it was on Bigga island. So, if anyone here knows the answer, please tell me!
In the anteroom of a small church is one of Romes best known attractions, the Bocca Della Veritá . The reason for this fame presumably is that, according to common belief, it will bite off the hand of everyone who isn't truthful. Of course, I passed the test. Really! All other visitors did as well. So, mankind seems to be inherently good, after all. ...

Is it on Kalabsha? I remember there being a smaller temple off on a corner of the islet.

Actually, you are right! When I came back in 2004, I just had to find out and it
turned out that this is the kiosk of Kertassi, next to Kalabsha temple.
I took quite a few new photos of the kiosk and will upload the shortly.
Thanks!
