I’m kind of junkie when it comes to ancient cultures and civilizations. Probably pretty boring to most people, but for me, it kind of shows how, as a species, we really haven’t changed all that much.
One of the things that I find interesting is how all these experts try to explain things that, in reality, they don’t really understand.
Like the thing with the head on Sphinx. When you look at it, it’s kind of hard not to notice how the head appears to be so much smaller than the rest of the body. Given how precise the ancient Egyptians were in everything else they did, it kind of makes you wonder.
One theory that I read stated that it was because the Sphinx was actually built by a civilization the predates the ancient Egyptians and that it was originally a lions head that was re-carved to look like a pharaoh.
Another thing is the erosion in the walls that surround the Sphinx and on the body of the Sphinx which is supposed to be due to wind, but it sure looks like water erosion to me. You have to go back quite a way in earths history to a time where there was that much water in what is now basically a desert.
