The complex also contains evidence of adaptations, using buildings of the Ancient Egyptians by later cultures for their own religious purposes. The Hypostyle Hall is the most interesting thing in Karnak, which was established during the 18^th dynasty. The major importance of Karnak Temple lies in the fact that it is mainly the contact point between Amun, the supreme ruler of the universe, and the pharaoh, the supreme ruler on Earth who represented all Egyptian people.
