	There used to be hundreds of crocodiles at the river bend at Kom Ombo. Thats why the temple of  Kom Ombo was built here by Pharaoh Tholemaios XII 80 -51 B.c to worship the strenght of Sebek the crocodile god. Mummyfied crocodiles where found at the temple and put on display at the museum. There are no more crocodiles down stream on the Nile after the dam at Aswan
