The Colossi of Memnon are two sitting rock statues standing in the field between the west bank of the Nile and the Valley of the Kings. The two giant statues of Memnon, originally standing in front of a tower gate, are about 18 meters high. The relief on the side of the base is waving the pattern of the Nile god Habitat lotus and papyrus, symbolizing the unity of upper and lower Egypt. The seated statue, built by Amonhotep III at the height of the New Kingdom era, is so weathered that the face has long been unrecognizable. Behind the seated statue, it turned out to be his funeral hall, but later pharaohs demolished this building and used it as a stone for his own building. By the time of the Ptolemaic dynasty, the building had been completely destroyed. People think that the stone statue is a statue of Memnon in Greek mythology, so the stone statue is named the Colossus of Memnon.
