The Temples of Kumma and Semna

I keep stumbling across different mentions of two temples, which have links to Hatshepsut- Kumma and Semna. These Nubian temples, like the Temple of Horus at Buhen were rescued from destruction when the Aswan High Dam was created. I believe both of the remains are at the National Museum of Sudan, Khartoum, although i would like to request information on these temples to those of you who can provide it. I believe one may have been erected by Thutmose II and Hatshepsut and the other Thutmose III and Hatshepsut.

Further information will follow. There are available photos on Flickr but i would like more information before posting further. Can you help?

Regards,
Stuart
