The Temple of Hibis was first founded by pharaoh Psamtik II (595-589 BC) of the 26th Saite dynasty of Egypt. It is perhaps the best preserved temple from the Late Period of Egypt and is uniquely situated at Kharga Oasis in Western Egypt. The temple was decorated by the Persian conqueror Darius I. Subsequent additions to the size of the temple were later made by the 30th dynasty kings Nectanebo I and II.
