Adlar

Definition: Adlare is a type of stone used in the construction of ancient Egyptian temples, specifically the Great Temple at Giza (Mertsams 1975, p. 236). It was made of limestone or granite, with the outer layer being slightly softer than the inner layer and more resistant to weathering. The adlare stones were used for their hardness, which is thought to be related to the hardness of the limestone within it (Mertsams 1975, p. 236). They are not easily broken by heat or cold, but they can be crushed into smaller pieces as needed. The word "Adlare" comes from the Egyptian word for stone and the word "adl", which is the name of a god associated with wisdom and knowledge. In ancient Egypt, Adlare was often used in temples to represent a sacred place where wisdom could be found (Mertsams 1975, p. 236). The stones were also believed to have magical properties. In some cases, adlare was also used as a symbol of power or wealth, as it represented the wisdom and knowledge that could be obtained from the temple's entrance. Adlares were typically located in the inner sanctum of a temple, where they would be surrounded by other objects that represent knowledge or wisdom (Mertsams 1975, p. 236). The adlare stones themselves were also believed to have magical powers and could grant visitors with special knowledge. Adlares are thought to have been carved from limestone or granite, with the outer layer being slightly softer than the inner layer. They were often used in ancient Egyptian temple architecture because of their hardness, which made them ideal for carving intricate designs and using as tools.
