History[edit | edit source]

In 47 BCE, the Medjay Bayek of Siwa performed a leap from the rooftop of the temple, impressing the children of the city including Esiocles.^[1] Around the same time, Bayek also found one of the Papyrus Puzzles within the temple.^[2]

Sometime later, Bayek travelled to the temple after learning of the magistrate Leander's plan to have Diocles and all other opposing magistrates killed. Arriving just in time to foil the plot, Bayek and Diocles were able to fend off and eliminate Leander and his men.^[3]
