The focal point of the Deir el-Bahari complex is the Djeser-Djeseru meaning «the Holy of Holies», the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut. It is a colonnaded structure, which was designed and implemented by Senenmut, royal steward and architect of Hatshepsut (and believed by some to be her lover)[citation needed], to serve for her posthumous worship and to honor the glory of Amun.
