Inscriptions

Inscriptions

After victories and successful crossings, the armies often carved inscriptions in the wall of the southern cliff to commemorate these events.  There are seventeen ancient inscriptions as well as a number of modern ones.  The ancient ones are designated by Roman numerals.

The oldest inscription dates back to the days of the Egyptian ruler Rameses II (1279–1212 B.C.).
