General view from the north of the two Colossi of Memnon at Thebes. The northernmost (nearer) of these two great seated statues of Amenhotep III, is the statue known as the 'vocal Memnon,' owing to the whistling sound emitted by it each morning.

Actuellement isolés dans la plaine de Gournah, ils précédaient autrefois les pylônes de l'Amenopheum occidental de Thèbes.'
