Description

Two details from the second Sphinx scan data stand out beyond the basic identification. The nemes headdress is visible, confirming this is a pharaonic monument rather than the lion face early low-resolution scans suggested, and the serpent ornament that fell from the original Sphinx at some point in history and now sits in the Old Cairo Museum is still attached in the scan of the second Sphinx, which will be an extraordinary moment of confirmation if excavation ever reaches it. The proportional match to the original is also raising a question worth sitting with. The original Sphinx has a head that is notably small relative to its body, an anomaly widely discussed as evidence that the head was recarved at some point from a larger original form. The second Sphinx scan shows the same proportional relationship. That either means the small head was a deliberate design choice made twice, or both monuments were reworked at the same time from the same original type of structure, and we will not know which until someone moves the sand.

They where probably built long before Egypt even existed,same thing probably applies to the pyramids. That would explain why Egyptian authorities are so hesitant to allow thorough excavations.

Both Sphinxes and the Pyramids are legacies from a prior civilization, with large lion heads, built between 12k and 24k years ago. The Egyptians found the constructions at Giza already in place when they arrived, just like the Aztecs and Incas told the Spanish Explorers that all the megalithic constructions existed before their cultures moved in and repaired what they could.

Could see there being two, starting as being lions, and being recut as Pharoahs

Graham Hancock put together some very interesting info in one of his books. The original Sphinx very likely, almost certainly, had the head of a lion.

The face of a lion looks better than a Small funky head

legacy, definitely. Also this second sphinx will prove without a shadow of a doubt they are both MUCH older than we are being told

I'm still not convinced that it's a human face because the scans are not clear enough. I'll need to see more details.

Probably older than we would like to think. Maybe the early Egyptians reshaped the heads to look like one of their rulers and that is why the heads are smaller than they should be compare to the structure.

The lion was recut into the Pharaoh. Absolutely no one with an IQ above 10 thought the current face was a fucking lion.

I believe that most of the monuments were found and later modified. Thank you for the video.
