	Ancient Egypt: the Mythology - Khonsu
		Khonsu was a moon-god and the son of Amon-Re and Mut.
		Khonsu was associated with the moon and was considered a form of Thoth by the Thebens, and it was in Thebes that Ramses III built the "House of Khonsu in Thebes, Nefer-hetep".

	The Khonsu Temple at Karnak
		The Temple of Khonsu at Karnak is located in the southwest corner of the precinct of Amun in Luxor (ancient Thebes).
		Fronting the temple of Khonsu's pylon are the bare remnants of a colonnade of a type similar to that which proceeds the "upper gate" of the great Temple of Amun.
		Towards the rear of the peristyle court are columns that are presumed to have been taken from the great funerary temple of Amenhotep III on the west bank, which is interesting considering that the High-Priest was commissioned with protecting the funerary monuments on the West Bank at ancient Thebes (modern Luxor).
