During the Late Period in Egypt (664–332 BC), a new type of temple enclosure wall occurs throughout the country that is unprecedented in size and form. In past research, the form of these wave-shaped walls has been interpreted both technically and symbolically. However, a homogeneous concept in the evaluation of this novel construction technique is still absent.
