The second Sphinx is discovered in Egypt?

Another Sphinx, much talked about in Egypt, is believed to have been found while workers were preparing to build a new road.

According to local reports, the Sphinx was found on the Al-Kabbash road that connects the two temples of Karnak and Luxor that were built 1400 years BC. It has been confirmed that the statue has a lion body with a human head.

The ancient Egyptians considered the Sphinx to be a symbol of royalty, and pharaohs would have their heads carved in stone, which were then placed in their tombs. This was known as a way to mark their relationship with Sekhmet, the solar deity, who was believed to be a lioness.


In late 2017, historians believed that the Great Sphinx of Giza was an entrance to a secret underground city, which was hidden by the Egyptian authorities. Archaeologists also believe that the Sphinx stands above a complex network of tunnels with passages leading to a massive underground metropolis. /KP/
