Riddles of the Sphinx Online Lecture

Details

With the body of a lion and the face of a king, the Great Sphinx has become an instantly recognizable symbol of ancient Egypt. For thousands of years, this massive monument has lain at the feet of the pyramids of Giza, guarding the necropolis. The Sphinx’s popularity rose and fell, much like the desert sands that engulfed it during periods of neglect. When the Sphinx would reemerge, it aroused curiosity and wonder in those who gazed upon its colossal form. Join me for a look at the history of the Great Sphinx, discoveries surrounding the monument, and how it has inspired renewed interest and modern replicas.
