The Great Sphinx of Giza

The Great Sphinx of Giza is a limestone statue of a reclining sphinx, a mythical creature with the head of a human, and the body of a lion.

Facing directly from west to east, it stands on the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile. The face of the Sphinx appears to represent the pharaoh Khafre.

The original shape of the Sphinx was cut from the bedrock, and has since been restored with layers of limestone blocks.

It measures 73 m (240 ft) long from paw to tail, 20 m (66 ft) high from the base to the top of the head, and 19 m (62 ft) wide at its rear haunches.

Its nose was broken off for unknown reasons between the 3rd. and 10th. centuries AD.

The Sphinx is the oldest known monumental sculpture in Egypt, and one of the most recognisable statues in the world.

The archaeological evidence suggests that it was created by ancient Egyptians of the Old Kingdom during the reign of Khafre (c. 2558 - 2532 BC).

The Great Sphinx's Name

The commonly used name "Sphinx" was given to the monument in classical antiquity, about 2,000 years after the commonly accepted date of its construction by reference to a Greek mythological beast with the head of a woman, a falcon, a cat, or a sheep and the body of a lion with the wings of an eagle. (Although, like most Egyptian sphinxes, the Great Sphinx has a man's head and no wings).

The English word sphinx comes from the ancient Greek Σφίγξ from the verb σφίγγω (meaning to squeeze in English), after the Greek sphinx who strangled anyone who failed to answer her riddle.

History of the Great Sphinx

The Sphinx is a monolith carved from the bedrock of the plateau, which also served as the quarry for the pyramids and other monuments in the area.

Egyptian geologist Farouk El-Baz has suggested that the head of the Sphinx may have been carved first, out of a natural yardang, i.e. a ridge of bedrock that had been sculpted by the wind. These can sometimes achieve shapes which resemble animals.

El-Baz suggests that the "moat" or "ditch" around the Sphinx may have been quarried out later to allow for the creation of the full body of the sculpture.

The archaeological evidence suggests that the Great Sphinx was created around 2500 BC for the pharaoh Khafre, the builder of the Second Pyramid at Giza. The stones cut from around the Sphinx's body were used to construct a temple in front of it.

However, neither the enclosure nor the temple were ever completed, and the relative scarcity of Old Kingdom cultural material suggests that a Sphinx cult was not established at the time.

The #Majestic #Punakha #Dzong
Punakha Dzong in Punakha, dubbed ‘The #Palace #of #Great #Happiness,’ served as the country’s capital until the early twentieth century. It is #Bhutan’s second oldest and largest dzong, with exquisite interior and intricate embellishments like murals, carved woodwork, and paintings.

#Punakha is Bhutan’s winter capital, thanks to the region’s pleasant temperature. This dzong is where Bhutan’s chief of clergy and his entourage of monks spend the winter. The dzong is surrounded by jacaranda trees, which blossom with mauve flowers in the spring. Punakha is also home to Bhutan’s longest suspension bridge (Punakha Suspension Bridge), as well as Chimi Lhakhang, the Divine Madman’s fertility temple.

Dr. Farrell releases new #information on inventor #NikolaTesla and his #re-discovery of #Ancient #Technology that was embedded in the #Great #Pyramid of #Egypt by an older lost civilization.

TESLA DISCOVERIES SUPPRESSED
Dr. Farrell also goes deep on the how Tesla's work was taken out of circulation by JP Morgan and his associates once they realized its powerful potential of wireless energy and weaponized Death Rays.
That work, according to Dr, Farrell, has continued in a secret Exotic Technology development by warring elite groups.
Dr. John Trump who handled Tesla's papers after his death may have discovered his long held secret invention and oddly enough President Trump just brought up his uncle last last week on Fox News.
Did Uncle John share this Exotic Technology secret with his nephew Don, the future President of the United States?"
