Comments on the reconstructions of the Koptos temple
(Middle Kingdom and Second Intermediate Period)

1. The Koptos temple of the Second Intermediate Period - reliefs of king Nubkheperre Intef as part of the main sanctuary.

2. The Koptos temple of the Second Intermediate Period - reliefs of Intef Nubkheperre as part of separate chapels set up in the courtyard

Eder 2002 proposed a reconstruction of the blocks, with just one chapel decorated on the outside with the sunken reliefs and on the inside with the raised reliefs.
