The Great Sphinx is one of Egypt’s greatest mysteries. Until now, many scientists debated who commissioned the sculpture of the Sphinx. It is still a study on how the Sphinx was built and in honour of what king. Many theories are circulating about the construction of the Great Sphinx. Something is sure, though, it is a reflection of what transpired in humanity in ancient times. The debate of the age and origin of the Sphinx continues today. However, many agreed that it was built around 2500 BCE. The Great Sphinx remains to be a mystery up until now. The world’s leading Egyptologist, Lehner, believed that it was made in honour of a great pharaoh. He speculated that the Sphinx Temple, the Sphinx and the pyramid harness solar energy. They were built to prepare the pharaoh for eternal life. On the question of who built the Sphinx, revered experts have answers. Lehner and Hawass believed that it was made for Pharaoh Khafre. He was the ruler of Egypt during the Old Kingdom. It was constructed after the Great Pyramid honouring his father, Khufu. Khafre, following the same act made by his father, built a pyramid smaller than the Great Pyramid. He added the Sphinx to safeguard the burial sites in Giza. Yet, we must note that the origin of the Great Sphinx is an unsolved puzzle. There is a continued study up until now to fully understand the mystery behind the Sphinx.
