About
Jebel Dosha is an archaeological site located on a sandstone promontory along the Nile's western bank in Sudan's Northern State. This site is significant for its rock-cut chapel dedicated to Thutmose III, featuring partially intact inscriptions and wall decorations. The chapel includes three seated statues, though they are largely disfigured. Additionally, the site contains several stelae and rock inscriptions from the New Kingdom period, with notable contributions from the early Ramesside period. These stelae, commissioned primarily by the Viceroy of Kush, Amenemopet, depict significant religious scenes involving deities such as Khnum, Satet, and Anket, and showcase the artistic style and religious practices of the era. The presence of such structures and artifacts highlights the site's role in the broader context of New Kingdom religious and political life.
