About the tomb of the pyramids
The meaning of the word sphinx Phroneh (Mr.)
The Sphinx of the Western World was re-discovered when Napoleon passed through Egypt in 1798, and there are very many sphinxes around the world, most of them in Egypt and Giza
And some of them are considered by the Son of God to be the Sun of Egypt (Ra) and thus represents the power and wisdom and was a symbol of the strong existence of Egypt for centuries, but there is another kind of the Egyptian Sphinx and be in the form of a ram and is related to another God is (Amun)
He is Anubis the cemetery keeper and responsible for mummification
The Sphinx was carved from the hard rock of the basalt and may have prepared for you that the head is smaller than the body because the body was buried beneath the sand, retaining its structure coherent from the desert erosion factors. Unlike the head that was buried and revealed several times over the centuries, the sand was removed from the Sphinx Completely in 1905 to reveal the beauty of this statue
The length of the foot is 15 m and the full height reaches 45 m, the height of the head is 10 m and the width is 4 m. Because the composition of the statue is of several layers, some of it is softer than the other. Some areas have eroded and others have been preserved.
The most common theory is that King Khafra (2558-2532 BCE) of the fourth royal dynasty is ordered to build the Sphinx. Khafra is one of the sons of Khufu (the Great Pyramid) and there is a straight path between the Sphinx and the Middle Pyramid (the tomb of Khafra)
For a long time he believed that the face of the Sphinx resembled that of King Khafre
Is strikingly similar to the face of the Sphinx and the face of the elder brother of Chephre, King Djedefre, who ruled for a short period of time
Unlike his brothers, he did not build a pyramid in Giza but built it in Abu al-Rosh, where he is now heavily damaged. Some believe that Khafra raped the king's throne from his brother and then built his pyramid and the sphinx in Giza.
A German scientist in Egyptian history suggested that the builder of the real pyramids is King Khufu himself, who is also the builder of the Great Pyramid, but it is a possibility far from reality.
Sue shows the portal of dreams and the story written on the rock in the breast of the statue
Between the feet of the Sphinx is a gate now called the Gate of Dreams with a story engraved on it. The story of the 18th royal generation tells us that Thutmosis IV (c.1400-1390 BCE) slept at the top of the Sphinx, which was drenched in dust to his neck. Thamosis' dream that the Sphinx is his word and his promise to become king, but in return he must free him from the desert sands and remove the dust from him
He did not know what really happened in that period, but it seems that Themusis removed the sand from the sphinx at the time, and believed that the dream was a fabricated story for political purposes, a kind of propaganda to prove the legitimacy of the king and his credibility, according to the ancient Egyptians believe that the gods are the ones who decide The next pharaoh is supporting him, and perhaps in this case the Sphinx itself ..
The painting made of granite above the gate tells the story of the dream in addition to the registration of the first year under the rule of Themosis. In front of the gate of dreams there is something like the altar where their idolatrous worship was performed during the reign of Ramesses the Second
Why the Sphinx without a nose and where disappeared?
His picture shows how much damage the face has had on the days of Napoleon
