SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The recent and rapid deterioration of some ancient and historic monuments along the Nile River has attracted the attention and concern of workers in various fields. Due to the arid climate in the region, the practice of irrigation is accompanied by salt deposits, on the ground and on the walls of monuments, contributing to the degradation. This is particularly evident at the Karnak Temple Complex. The theory of chromatography is applied to investigate the homogeneity of the soil system at Karnak. Cation selectivity of the soils, resulting in separation of Na and K, was observed. Other physicochemical processes occurring in the region are investigated. Comparative studies of the salt deposits at the Karnak Temples, the Great Sphinx at Giza and Hatshepsut Temple, Sudan, were done. The salt content of the groundwater in the latter two cases was minimal compared to that at Karnak.
