Pharaoh Thutmose III of the 18th dynasty originally built the Temple of Amada, the earliest Egyptian temple in Nubia, and dedicated it to Amun and Re-Horakhty. The building's initial plan called for a portico that led to a sanctuary, a courtyard, and a pylon. On the other hand, the pillars and walls "were decorated with offering scenes, with those involving Thutmosis IV on the left" and Thutmose III and Amenhotep II on the right, when Thutmose IV roofed the open forecourt. The temple's interior features include some of the most exquisitely etched reliefs with vivid hues, despite its drab and deteriorating appearance
