Summary

Description

English: Philae /ˈfaɪliː/ (Greek: Φιλαί Philai; Ancient Egyptian: Pilak, P'aaleq; Arabic: فيله‎ [fiːlɐ]) is an island in Lake Nasser, Egypt. It was formerly an island in the First Cataract of the Nile River and the previous site of an Ancient Egyptian temple complex in southern Egypt. The complex was dismantled and relocated to nearby Agilkia Island during a UNESCO project started because of the construction of the Aswan Dam, after the site was partly flooded by the earlier Aswan Low Dam for half a century.

العربية: جزيرة فيلة، هي جزيرة في منتصف نهر النيل وهي إحدى الحصون الأقوى على طول حدود مصر الجنوبية، وتفصل النيل إلى قناتين معاكستين في أسوان، كان بها معبد فيلة وانتقل من مكانه الأصلي على جزيرة فيلة وتم تجميعه على جزيرة أجيليكا، وذلك في أعقاب بناء السد العالي.[1]

تفقد فاروق الأول لمعبد أنس الوجود

ويرجع اسم فيلة أو فيلاي إلى اللغة الإغريقية التي تعني (الحبيبة) أو (الحبيبات) أما الاسم العربي لها فهو أنس الوجود نسبة لأسطورة أنس الموجودة في قصص ألف ليلة وليلة أما الاسم المصري القديم والقبطي فهو بيلاك أو بيلاخ ويعني الحد أو النهاية لأنها كانت آخر حدود مصر في الجنوب. ومجموعة العبادة كرست لعبادة الإلهة إيزيس غير أن الجزيرة احتوت على معابد لحتحور وأمنحتب وغيرها من المعابد.
