Since Hathor was often associated with Isis, as she is at Philae, it has been suggested that "this kiosk and the small temples of Dabod and Dendur were way stations on the processional route taken by priests bearing the image of Isis around Lower Nubia, which was held to be her estate."
Då Hathor ofta associerades med Isis, såsom i File, har det föreslagits att "denna kiosk och de små templen Debod och Dendur var stationer på processionsleden där präster bar fram bilden av Isis i Nedre Nubien, som ansågs vara hennes land."
