great court, luxor temple

in front of the colonnade of amenhotep III.  a fire extinguisher worked its way into the picture, and i'm wondering... what's it used for?  does it get so hot in egypt they think either the stones or people will catch fire?  i found no evidence of flammable materials within 20 meters
