Rain played a great role of nourishment in the barren land of Egypt which comprised two spacious deserts flanking a narrow strip of agriculture. Not only was rain a source of vegetation, but it had also a demolishing effect when too heavy. Observing this fact, the ancient Egyptian took the precautions to adapt to this destructive side of rains. This research displays examples from temples dating back to the New Kingdom as a testimony to this care given to drainage system such as temples of Hatshapsut at Deir El Bahari, Karnak, Abydos and Medinet Habu.
