The Sphinx

The sphinx, was long considered to have been built during the 4th dynasty with the great pyramids. Now the age of the sphinx is in question, some of the rock erosion patterns on the body of the sphinx suggest that they were caused by flowing water from rainfall. The last time that rainfall was abundent in Ancient Egypt was about 10500 years ago ! Who knows !

Why is the head of the sphinx not proper in size as related to it's body ? One theory put forth was that the head, being out of the sand for a long period of time,
while the body was covered with sand, became very eroded due to the wind and sand, while the body did not. The ancient egyptians decided to re-carve the head and by doing so made it smaller due to having to remove some of the eroded stone. The real questions is; what did the head look like before the ancient egyptians re-carved it. Is it the same, only smaller, or is it completely different than the original head ?
Edgar Rice Cayce predicted in the 1930's that a Hall of Records would be found in a chamber beneath the paws of the Sphinx sometime between 1998-2001 that when revealed will astonish the World!!!!! This prediction was made 40 YEARS before a cavity was determined to be 50 feet below ground, between the paws of the Sphinx. Exploration of this chamber has yet to be allowed by the egyptian government!
A piece of the beard from the Sphinx has been found tucked away in a glass case in a corner of the British Museum!

The following pictures are very old and show the sphinx before being uncovered from the sand and restored. Note all the damage to the head and the nemes-headdress before restoration.
