Did the Great Sphinx of Giza started out with a Face of Lion ?
Along with Pyramid of Giza, the Great Sphinx is one of the most studied ancient monument of Egyptian civilization, the Great Sphinx has always been an enigma, the Egyptians wrote little about it and did not leave documented records of its constructions, there have been many theories regarding its construction, some suggests that it was constructed during the reign of Khafre (2520-2494 B.C.), but a new theory based on geological evidence suggests that the Great Sphinx may have been far older than the accepted time period, this is based on severe weathering and erosion were caused not by winds and blowing sand, but by rain.
Furthermore researchers also discovered that the Sphinx’s body and head were disproportionate, suggesting it may not originally be head of a pharaoh, but of a lion which the researcher suggests was later carved into the face of pharaoh.
Robert Bauval, a Belgian construction engineer saw that the monuments in the Giza region on the earth mimic various constellations in the sky. Using his method, archaeology-astronomy and the computer model for stars for 2,500 B.C. and 10,500 B.C. shows why the Sphinx has the form of a lion’s body. He showed that the Sphinx facing east or the raising sun is clearly a marker for the spring equinox. Now Leo is the zodiac sign that conforms to a lion’s body. The sun rose in the constellation or house of Leo during the time of the spring equinox 10,500 B.C. This was also at the same time the Orion constellation lined up with the pyramids and other monuments had aligned with various other constellations.
Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) in some of his trances has stated that Egypt was the repository for records of the alleged civilization of Atlantis, about 10,500 B.C. This repository was an underground library, called the Hall of Records,” that contains the wisdom of Atlantis, he claimed that the Sphinx points in the direction of the “Hall of Records.”
