Temple of Thoth

The Temple of Thoth was a large temple complex dedicated for the worship of the Egyptian god Thoth situated in Arsinoe Nome of Sinai.

During the 1st century BCE, Herodotus' notes about Egypt were used by the priests of the temple for research. However, they were later deemed to be filled with misinformation and odd anecdotes, resulting in some of his research being dismissed.[1]

In around 38 BCE, the temple was visited by the Hidden One Bayek of Siwa, who was pursuing the Shard of a Star legend. Visiting a large tree situated in the courtyard, Bayek discovered an entrance containing a pyramidion behind the roots. He was eventually able to unlock the entrance and retrieve a pair of short blades[2] Around the same time, Bayek also recovered a Papyrus Puzzle in the main hall.[3]
