Resumen del Editor

New research and evidence that the Sphinx is thousands of years older than previously thought

• Contrasts what Egyptologists claim about the Sphinx with historical accounts and new research including reanalysis of seismic studies and updates to Schoch’s water weathering research and Bauval’s Orion Correlation Theory
• Examines how the Sphinx is contemporaneous with Göbekli Tepe, aligned with the constellation Leo, and was recarved during the Old Kingdom era of Egypt
• Reveals that the Sphinx was built during the actual historical Golden Age of ancient Egypt, the period known in legend as Zep Tepi

No other monument in the world evokes mystery like the Great Sphinx of Giza. It has survived the harsh climate of Egypt for thousands of years and will remain long after our own civilization is gone. According to orthodox Egyptology, the Sphinx was built around 2500 BCE as a memorial to the pharaoh Khafre. Yet this “fact” has scant to no supportive evidence. When was the Sphinx really built and, most importantly, why?

In this provocative collaboration from two Egyptology outsiders, Robert M. Schoch, Ph.D., and Robert Bauval combine their decades of research to show how the Sphinx is thousands of years older than the conventional Egyptological timeline and was built by a long forgotten pre-Pharaonic civilization. They examine the known history of the Sphinx, contrasting what Egyptologists claim with prominent historical accounts and new research, including updates to Schoch’s geological water weathering research and reanalysis of seismic studies. Building on Bauval’s Orion Correlation Theory, they investigate the archaeoastronomical alignments of the monuments of the Giza Plateau and reveal how the pyramids and Sphinx were built to align with the constellations of Orion and Leo. Analyzing the evidence for a significantly older construction phase at Giza and the restoration and recarving of the Sphinx during the Old Kingdom era, they assert that the Sphinx was first built by an advanced pre-Pharaonic civilization that existed circa 12,000 years ago on the Giza Plateau, contemporaneous with the sophisticated Göbekli Tepe complex.

The authors examine how the monuments at Giza memorialize Zep Tepi, the Golden Age of legend shown here to be an actual historical time period from roughly 10,500 BCE through 9700 BCE.

Moving us closer to an understanding of the true age and purpose of the Great Sphinx, Schoch and Bauval provide evidence of an early high civilization witnessed by the Great Sphinx before the end of the last ice age.

Very Thorough Examination of Sphinx Origins Theories

I enjoyed this very much, especially the inclusion of the authors research sources in the appendices allowing the reader to expand their own research. It was at times read or narrated a bit fast which seemed challenging for the narrator but despite this he did quite well… I am a fan of Dr.Schoch, Bauval and yes even West…

Mediocre narrator

He's just not a good narrator. He sounds too tense and not invested in what he's reading. And his cadence sounds forced and rushed.

excellent

great and informative. I know nothing about geology, but I understood the concepts as it is written well and not bogged down with technobable.

the myths of old, need to peered at as if they actually happened and with scientific lenses.

how else are we to find the answers we seek about who our species is and what we represent and how we function with this planet instead of against it?

anyway, loved the book.

So nice, I listened TWICE!

and now on to a third time... an interesting and well presented read. I appreciate the writing style and flow of information from both Bauval and Dr. Schoch. Look forward to all new work!

extremely interesting

This was very interesting material, fascinating, but too intensely academic to absorb by audio book.

The Truth is Out There

This presents a very thorough and convincing analysis of the Sphinx that defies the accepted theory of most Egyptologists. It leaves. no doubt that the Sphinx predates dynastic Egypt by at least 6000 years. We must conclude that there indeed was Very advanced technological civilization operating on the Giza plateau who designed and built it. Clearly when the historical Egyptians arrived there it was already an ancient mystery. They made repairs to it and they revealed then Lion’s head to form a human head. Thus we attribute the Sphinx to a work of dynastic Egyptians. Now the evidence that we have been wrong about the origins of human civilization is going to dramatically impact not only our history but also our future.
I expect a wealth of new and even more detailed evidence to show in our lifetime as the truth about our origins starts to displace our superstitions.

A must read primer on the Sphinx

This is a must listen primer on the origin and latest research on the age and development of the Sphinx. Micah Hanks reading is wonderfully gifted and exquisitely delivered, especially for a very technical manuscript. Love the inclusion of all the addendums and additional with authors notes.

way to bring the truth to egyptology and true anci

love it...i know thw 2 aurhors from Ancient Aliens. Heard these ideas in bits and piecwsvon the series but finally grwat to hear it in irs entirety! so tired of so called egypgologist clinging to unfounded theries and trying to force their theries into a history that just does not match the evidence! Bravo to the authors!

Solid Theory!

Amazing to think the Sphinx is thousands, if not tens of thousands of years older than currently believed. Excellent details and facts! Solid theory!

What you didn’t say

You mentioned solar activity and danced around the magic number 12,960 (years) Half of a celestial cycle of 25,920(years). We live on a planet that is 26,000 light years from the super massive black hole (SMBH) at the center of the Milky Way. This SMBH like all stellar objects undergoes “ electromagnetic poleshift “ on a regular periodic basis. The SMBH at the milky ways center has a period of 12,960 years. So at any point in time there are two galactic super waves headed our way. Last time it was in the age of Leo 12,960 years ago. Noah’s flood !! Now add 180 degrees of precession to the celestial calendar and it is now. When we see a blue glowing ball coming from the dark center of the Milky Way that will outshine all other objects time is close. When this electromagnetic tsunami hits the Ort cloud it will suck up matter and drag it into the solar system. This will fulfill the prophecy of the sun looking like it’s draped in black sack cloth and the moon is blood red. The earth will rain red and black like the Inca remember. The suns output will reflect back into its core reaction until it micro novas and blows the dust from the inner solar system. Emitting plasma magnetic ropes that will discharge into the magnetosphere shorting it out with catastrophic consequences. That’s what put the grand canyon on mars. There’s no debris from a hole 80 miles wide 4000 miles long and a mile deep with fractal discharge patterns and all that material got ionized poof ! As far as the Sphinx goes. The best historical account is that the Annunaki built it after the flood along with the pyramids in the time of Leo (LION) with Leo rising in front of it in the morning. The face is Ningazita one of Enkis younger sons. Which started the family feud between MARDUC and the rest of the Annunaki.
