Luxor Temple. The procession of fattened bulls. The animals, doomed to be sacrificated, symbolize the traditional foes of Egypt. They bear masks in the likeness of those on their heads. The horns of the first bull have been carved to look like arms ; bulls with similar twisted horns can be seen in modern Sudan.
