I missed this. Did they even float the theory that the Sphinx is much older than initially thought and that it was initially built as a lion?
OK. I wondered if they were going to cover any alternative theories, apparently not. I still don't think the mainstream theories have adequately explained the size discrepancy between the body and the head. I also find it interesting that the head is made from a different type stone than the rest of the body.
Thanks for the followup.
Hawass is notoriously protective of Egyptian culture and he has been very dismissive of any theories that ancient Egypt may have been remnants of a much older culture.
