Egypt is an ancient and mysterious country, where there is Khufu pyramid . Around the Khufu pyramid, there is a sphinx. Our content today is about Sphinx , which is still a huge mystery to this day. It is said that it hides the secrets about the end of the world.
Sphinx
(Spirit?)
Why is this big statue called Sphinx? The reason why it is called the Sphinx is because the lower part of the sculpture is very similar to the body of a lion. If one day we discover that it is the body of another animal, it may be changed to another name. At first, the big sculpture had only its head exposed above the ground. People always thought it was just a huge statue of human head. Later, someone suggested that there must be other buried underground parts under the statue, so they organized excavation activities. After more than ten years of excavation, the entire Sphinx statue was finally displayed. This was not assembled like a pyramid, but carved from a whole large piece of stone, 74 meters long, 6 meters wide and 20 meters high. As for how long it took to be built, it is difficult to estimate, but according to the craftsmanship at that time, it should take a long time.
(When will it be built?)
Sphinx
When was the Sphinx built? It is difficult for everyone to determine when. The most common view at the beginning was after the Khufu pyramid. However, with the continuous development of science and technology in the later period, experts surveyed the weathering and corrosion of the Sphinx, so they found that the statue should have been built between 5,000 and 10,000 BC. Human civilizations at that time did not necessarily exist, so it is even more difficult to know how the Sphinx was made.
(Original look?)
Sphinx
Let’s observe the Sphinx now. Its head is very small and its body is very large. The Egyptians pay great attention to proportion. Compared with the various statues left by Ancient Egyptian , we will find that the proportion of the Sphinx does not conform to Ancient Egyptian ’s pursuit of perfect proportions and does not conform to normal aesthetics. Therefore, some people think that this person was added later, but no one knows what animal statue it was before. Some people think that since the body is a lion, the previous head should also be the lion's head, so that it will be more harmonious. Another theory is that the human face part is the god Anubis, that is, the god who made mummies. He can send the dead to the underground world, so he is the tomb guardian, so it is not surprising that it is built next to the Khufu pyramid. Then the head should be a dog's head, because the god Anubis is a dog's head god, but there is another theory that it is a jackal. The statement about the god Anubis has been denied by many scientists because many people believe that the purpose of the pyramid is not a tomb, and naturally there is no need for a guardian god.
(Who is the human face?)
Experts carefully compared the mural portraits of pharaohs of all ages with the human face. From the beginning, it looks like the image of pharaoh, but after careful observation, we can find that this human face is actually more like a woman. From its eyebrows and eyes and a shallow smile, it can be seen that it is a girl, especially its ears are very similar to the daughter of Khufu on the mural, but the face does not look like it. In addition, the nose on the human face is no longer there, and it is even harder to identify. Some people say that the nose was blown up by Napoleon with a cannon, but scientists' research shows that the nose was no longer there before Napoleon expanded.
Sphinx
(There are two sphinxes?)
Ancient Egyptians admired dualism very much, so the appearance of various items should appear in pairs, not just one.There were two sphinxes on the murals, one facing east and the other facing west. The one I discovered again in reality was facing east, and there was a stone tablet directly in front of the sphinx, and two sphinxes were also carved on the stone tablet. So where is the other one? Previously, Egyptian officials said that statues similar to Sphinx were found in another city, but the distance was very far. In other cities, it seems that the Sphinx might also be to protect the entire country, rather than a certain mausoleum.
(The secret room under the statue?)
Sphinx
Professor Yoshimura of Japan once used electromagnetic wave to scan the sphinx and found that there were two secret rooms below the statue. Therefore, many countries proposed to excavate the secret room, but was rejected by the Egyptian government. Because the secret of the Sphinx in Egypt is related to religion, religious articles record that "below this one there are two stones given by God, they will shine." The flag of Israel is an overlapping shape of two triangles, and it is said that this is the shape of those two stones. The Bible also says that there is a stone called the Sage Stone, which is the stone in Harry Potter. Once this stone is seen again, it will be the end of the world.
Sphinx
According to positive statement, the discovery of this stone is the beginning of the new century and the end of the old century, but there are still many conservatives who believe that digging out the Sphinx will bring the end of the world. The Martian boy in Russia had also said that when we opened the Sphinx, our world would usher in an unprecedented life, which contained highly developed technologies that transcend modern times, which actually had the same effect as the beginning of the new era before.
( The Sphinx of Pakistan ?)
In 2004, Pakistanis said that they found the Sphinx in a cave. If they looked closely, they did have some similarities. In addition, NASA also has an object similar to the Sphinx in the photos taken by Mars, and behind the object, there is something similar to the pyramid, which makes people firmly believe that there are Sphinxes on Mars.
Do you think there is really a treasure in the Sphinx that represents the new era? If you are interested, you can discuss it in the comment section! That’s all for today’s content, see you next time!
