DISCOTERIES ABOUT THE SPHINX.



An undertaking has been begun which ought to yield
results OF special interest THIS the removal OF the
sand from round the Sphinx. The Sphinx occupies a
position where the encroachment of the desert most
conspicuous At the present day nothing is TO be
seen of the animal except its head and its neck but
the old Egyptian monuments on which 1t Is figured
show not only the entire body down to the paws, but
also large square plinth beneath, covered with
Ornamental Since the time Of the Greeks perhaps
even since the reign of Thothmes w. this plnth has
disappeared beneath the sand and Its very existence
had been forgotten.
1t is generally supposed that the Sphinx Is hewn out
of a large isolated rock which overlooked the PLAIN.
But NJ Masperos researches suggest that il IS work
yet more stlpendous. He has proved that the sphinx
occupies tie centre Of an amphitheatre, forming :
kind of rocky basin, the upper rim Of which sDous
on level with the head of the animal The walls OF
this amphtheatre whenever visible. are cut oY tne
hand of man. IL seems probable, therefore, tha' ~

which an artificial valley has been excavated 80 as
to leave in the middle block out OF which the sphn
was finally hewn. The excavations now being carried
on Will doubtless verify the existence OF the PinIn
shown on the old paintings, and also Furnish evidehoc
