The great stone head of Ramses II is lifted by cranes after it was cut free during operations to save the ancient Abu Simbel Temple from water from a huge man made lake forming behind Aswan Dam in Egypt around Nov. 29, 1965. The temples, which were carved out of the rock face over 3,000 years ago are being cut into 30-ton slabs to be re-erected on higher ground. (AP Photo)
