The mystery of the "fishy" sphinx ... lake, catacombs and city below the statue

Basements down the statue

Dr. Zahi Hawas, the Egyptian archaeologist, in his talk about what is reported about the existence of a lost city below the Sphinx, confirmed that it is "propaganda of fame only", and it has not been carried out with any connection, and without any scientific evidence at all.

Hawash continued his speech, saying: “We have pictures of the excavation that took place beneath the Sphinx, and it turned out that it is a deaf rock and there are no corridors beneath it. A hole around it in all its sides 20 meters deep underground in the rock.

However, it was proven beyond any doubt that there were no passages around or below the Sphinx, before it was confirmed that it had been donated from the pyramid rock.

However, Hawas returned to confirm that during the cleaning operations of the statue, 4 catacombs were found inside, and some believed at the time that there were catacombs beneath the statue other than these four, but this is also not true.

Hayward Phys hole

Stories related to "Sphinx" did not stop there; rather, they extend to the presence of a hole in the head of the statue, and from time to time, they are widely circulated, but archaeologist Dr. Zahi Hawas returns this novel to the traveler "Hayward Phys."

This traveler resorted to dynamite in an attempt to reveal the basements, and the explosion caused the opening to the head of the statue, after which he restored the head with cement, and before anything, there is no fear at all on the nursing head, because it is sculpted from the third solid layer of the pyramid's body.

Myths associated with the Sphinx did not stop, and the historian Herodotus, "father of history", when he came to Egypt, reported that the evidence took him to the Azureus well underground about 20 meters away, and it was full of water. He said, "There is a lake under the pyramid of Khufu."

He discovered that it was private to worship the god Azores, and the sarcophagus was inside the well, and that this water is completely far from the pyramid and has no connection to King Khufu.

Complete city

Years ago, Egyptian archaeologist Dr. Zahi Hawas met a high-level American delegation, including intellectuals, writers, university professors and public figures, in front of the statue. At that time, the delegation was talking about a lost city under the Sphinx, but he assured them that this is not true, and there is no scientific evidence at all .

The first basement above the statue, and French engineer "Bering" dug it in 1937 behind the head, and that was a search for treasures inside his body, and when this basement was cleaned, it was the most important found of the sphinx's headgear.

As for the second crypt in Wajd on the north side of the statue, it cannot be seen now, as it was used by the French archaeologist, "Barthur" and it is rumored so far that it contains treasures and antiquities.

This third basement behind the "dream painting", where the Italian adventurer Cavaglia in the nineteenth century interpreters, dug down the sphinx's chest and found a dream painting covering a gap of three meters deep, and this painting belongs to King Tuthmosis the Fourth.

The dream story written in the hieroglyphic script tells of the details of Prince Tuthmosis’s visit to the pyramids, before he took the throne of Egypt, and he fell asleep in the shadow of the Sphinx, which he visited in his dreams, and preached that he would become the king of Egypt, and in exchange for this tidbit he asked the Sphinx to Tuthmosis to He removes the sand that surrounded him and bury most of his body.

The scene at the top of the painting indicates the dedication of Tuthmosis the Fourth to the worship of the Sphinx. While sleeping under the statue, he uncovered excavations and restorations of the old statue.

This fourth basement at the back of the Sphinx and enters the body of the statue, opens at the level of the ground on the northern side of the rear, and wraps at the beginning of the tail, and there are many sayings that "the curse of the Pharaohs" guard this crypt, and that an American antiquity entered the crypt that reached its depth to 15 meters, and the curse of the Pharaohs took him from him, and he stuck with him throughout his life until she killed him, as this vault entered the King Philip the King of Belgium recently.
