Kurna

Kurna, Gourna, Qurna ili Qurnah (što označava "predbrežje" ili "rt planine")^[1] je naziv za tri sela koja se nalaze u blizini Tebanskih brežuljaka na zapadnoj obali rijeke Nil nasuprot suvremenom gradu Luxor u Egiptu. Tri sela su Qurna, Sheikh ‘Adb el-Qurna i Nova Qurna.

Qurna

Qurna je malo selo oko 100m istočno od Hrama Setija I. Do sredine 19. vijeka naselje je obuhvaćalo i dijelove samog Hrama. Neki putnici, kao Richard Pococke^[2] ilči Sonnini de Manoncourt^[3] navode čak i šeika od Qurne. Edward William Lane godine 1825. navodi da je selo u potpunosti napušteno. Isabella Frances Romer^[4] sugerira da se selo ponovno počelo naseljavati 1840-ih. Danas je naseljeno.
