Abstract

Abstract An overview of Dendera in the Graeco‐Roman and Late Antique periods. In the Graeco‐Roman period the site was dominated by the temple of Hathor, one of the best preserved temples in Egypt and the center of her cult. During Late Antiquity the city continued to be of regional significance, as is evinced by the episcopal see that was created here, as well as the church that was built close to the Hathor temple.
