The Aswan High Dam is a large dam located on the Nile River in southern Egypt, near the city of Aswan. The dam was constructed between 1960 and 1970 as a joint project between Egypt and the Soviet Union, with the aim of controlling the flooding of the Nile, generating hydroelectric power, and increasing agricultural productivity in the region. The dam is over 3.8 kilometers long and 111 metres high, and it can hold up to 169 billion cubic metres of water. The creation of Lake Nasser, the reservoir formed behind the dam, required the relocation of over 100,000 people and the flooding of numerous archaeological sites, including the temple complex of Abu Simbel.
