Sphinx

What was the Sphinx for, and what is the Sphinx?
The Sphinx's body is not a lion, but another creature.
The head was re-carved, and the Pharaoh's face can
now be identified.

There is a burial chamber inserted beneath the waist of
the Sphinx. 280 years' worth of published accounts of eye
witnesses who saw the chamber, all of them published here
in full, prove its existence. It was sealed with cement in 1926.
The story of the Middle Kingdom pharaoh who uncovered
the Sphinx was still being told by the locals in 1482, as
recorded by a Dutch visitor. This is the longest recorded survival
of folklore in world history, a tale which survived with its essential
facts intact for three thousand years.

The Nile in ancient times lapped near the feet of the Sphinx,
and the Sphinx was like an island surrounded by water
filling 'the Sphinx Pit' where it sits now. The photographic
evidence of sluices for controlling the inflow of the water
are published. The water erosion is fully explained.
Evidence published here proves that the Sphinx is part of a
unified design with the three main pyramids of Giza. It was
'the guardian' of Giza. The three pyramids and the Sphinx
were all conceived as a single complex.
The Sphinx was originally a crouching figure of the dog
god Anubis, traditionally the guardian of the dead in ancient
Egypt.

Every published account of the Sphinx from Roman times
to 1837 is published in the back of the book, most translated
from foreign languages. These were collected over many
years and are now gathered into one place.
The Sphinx was part of a sacred resurrection cult based
upon the rising sun at the equinox.
