In front of the Temple of Edfu , one can see a small building dedicated to the birth of Harsomtus or Horus , who unites Egypt , son of Horus and Hathor . The capitals of the building have figures of the dwarf god Bes , who used to help in the childbirth . The scenes on the walls , some of which still preserve their original color , represent the Feast of the Beautiful Meeting and some agricultural motifs .
