The Sphinx of Giza is the world's largest megalithic statue located on the west bank of Giza Nile. It is a huge limestone statue, a mysterious creature, the body of the lion, and the human head. It is 73.5 meters in length and 66.34 meters in height. The Great Sphinx is also the world's oldest monument. Archeologists estimate that the monument was built between 2558 BC and 2532 BC. As time passed, natural erosion and human activities brought about more damage to the surface of the monument. The purpose of the Great Sphinx is still a mystery

Many people are thinking that there is no second biggest Sphinx in Giza, especially after discovering many explanations including Sphinx for men and Sphinx for women. For example, the god of the earth and death, Aker, is often drawn as two reclining sphinx or lion, and possibly connected to their body back to back. So, the problem is that the twin brothers of the Great Sphinx of Giza turn to the west and may back to back. Archeologists added that the ancient Egyptians believed that the sun passed through the inner passage of the Earth every evening and that the two Sphinxes would protect their respective edges. Where did the twin of Giza Sphinx disappear?

Some people think that Sphinx is earlier than the pyramid before Giza becomes the 4th king's cemetery, and that the Giza area has sun worshipers. Sphinx, Sphinx Temple, funerary hall of fame, Hafre Valley Temple were built at the same time, suggesting that the attribution to Hafre was incorrect. With reference to the inventory Stela discovered by Mariette and Dream Stele, some people think that the Sphinx was actually refurbished during the former kingdom. However, this view is not popular among Egyptian antiquities, and some people who raised this view currently refuse to accept this theory.
