The Sphinx
The Sphinx is clearly among the most fascinating monuments of ancient Egypt, primarily because nobody can tell us exactly what was the purpose of this huge sculpture.
But the most likely theory is that it was meant to serve as a protection for the two great pyramids of Cheops and Chephren. It is now generally assumed that it was built by the command of Pharaoh Chephren . | | | | | |
