The Sphinx Might Be Older Than the Pharaohs

The Great Sphinx of Giza has a lion's body and a king's face, carved from the living bedrock around 2500 BC — or was it? Deep, rounded weathering on its flanks led a credentialed geologist, Robert Schoch, to argue the scars were cut by heavy rain that stopped falling thousands of years before the pharaohs — which would make the Sphinx the work of a lost civilization. It's the rare fringe claim worth taking seriously. So here's what's claimed, what the geology actually shows, and where the truth stands.
