What Do You Sphinx About This?
Believe it or not, there were a lot more than one sphinx in Egypt. The most famous one is The Great Sphinx of Giza. I like to call it “The Terrifying One”, not because I created that name, but because that’s the translation of the Arabic name – “Abu al-Haul”. The half lion and half human mythical creature was carved out of limestone. Egyptologists believe that Egyptians painted the sphinx in all different colors due to pigment traces that they found. Still, to this day, a lot has not been explored at this site.
