Before The Great Sphinx She Was... |

Concept and Creation
by Manu Seyfzadeh based on our published article at: http://www.scirp.org/Journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=77957 Please visit www.cheopspyramid.com Robert Schoch: http://www.robertschoch.com/ Robert Bauval: http://www.robertbauval.co.uk/ John Anthony West: http://www.jawest.net/ Notes: 1) The hieroglyphic text on the first screen of this video, "Shesepu Ur" translates into "Great Sphinx", however this name was never used by the Egyptians themselves. The Great Sphinx was called "Hor-em-akhet" on the Dream Stele, the "Living Statue of Hor-akhty" as recorded in ~1400 B.C. by Thutmose IV. Without a name, a being had no existence in ancient Egypt and so it would be inconceivable for the monument we know as the Great Sphinx to not have had a name before the Old Kingdom, if such a monument did indeed exist prior to the 26th century B.C. This idea is of course hotly debated with most traditional orthodox Egyptologists maintaining that the Great Sphinx was built by Khafre sometime at the end of the 26th century B.C and New Age historians insisting the Great Sphinx is a remodeled statue whose origins are much more ancient dating back to the 11th millennium B.C. The discovery of a name for this monument in the writings of the ancient Egyptians alive prior to Khafre therefore constitutes proof that Khafre did not make the Great Sphinx from scratch. Egyptologist may have never seriously looked for such a name predating Khafre, because they naturally presumed the statue didn't exist. The discovery described in this video and the journal article on which it is based (see link above) puts this notion into question and adds further proof to the existence of an older Sphinx. |
