For safety and security reasons, tourists are advised not to travel to the region. In the maze of underground galleries of the necropolis of Hermopolis, millions of baboons and ibises - the sacred animals of Thot, god of writing and language - were buried for almost 800 years. At the surface, the Tomb of Petosiris (grand priest of Thot) is notable for its combination of Egyptian and Greek decorative styles: religious and funeral scenes, daily life etc.
