If we have read Homer's epic, if we have seen ancient Greek dramas, we will see such dramas and be familiar with such stories. It was ancient Greece, and there was a place called Thebes, and then Thebes suddenly suffered a disaster, which was a bit like a man-made, that is to say, a magical animal with a woman's head in the upper part and a lion's body behind it. This mysterious animal came to Thebes, crouched on a hill in front of Thebes, and watched the passing pedestrians. Every resident or passer-by who enters Thebes will be stopped by him. He wants to ask you a question, which means that there is such an animal in the world. This animal has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon and three legs at night. What kind of animal is this? Many people can't answer. So they were eaten by the Sphinx one after another, which caused great panic in Thebes. But then a wise man came, and this man was Oedipus. After Oedipus came to Thebes, he also came to the Sphinx, so the Sphinx asked such a question as usual. What's the problem? This is the mystery of the Sphinx I mentioned just now. What kind of animal is this? But Oedipus is, after all, a hero of the ancient world, so how did he answer? He said that this is our human morning, symbolizing our human childhood. When we humans were born in childhood, we didn't walk on two legs. We crawl on four legs, so we get up on four legs in the morning. The sign of noon is that when people reach middle age, they no longer walk on four legs, but walk upright on two legs, so they have two legs at noon; So what does three legs mean at night? That is, people will always get old and walk unsteadily. On this day, people will use their crutches, which will form the third leg of human beings, so they have three legs at night. Then the Sphinx heard this answer and thought that this man was really smart, so he jumped off the cliff and died. So when was the story of ancient Greece born? We know that Homer's epic is around 800 BC, so when the ancient Greek drama flourished, whether it was its tragedy or its comedy, it was actually around 600 BC. Only then did we know that there was such a magical story in ancient Greek literature and mythology, that is, the story of the Sphinx.

If we look south again, we will be surprised to find that Greece crossed the Mediterranean to the south bank of the Mediterranean, so where is the south bank? The south bank is ancient Egypt. We can see a huge statue near great pyramid of giza, not far from ancient Egypt. This statue is the largest single statue in the history of our country and the oldest single statue. What statue is this? This is the Egyptian Sphinx in front of the pyramids of Giza and Havre Ruijin. The Sphinx in Egypt is not like the Sphinx in ancient Greece, and may not be exactly the same as it, but its huge size is shocking. We know how high it is from the bottom to the top. It is 20 meters, the length of the whole surface is 10 meters high, and the total length is more than 70 meters. When was such a big building and such a big statue built? Why build it? What special significance does it represent to put it in this place after it is completed? The sphinx is called the sphinx. What does this mean?

The word Sphinx is not an ancient Egyptian word, but an ancient Greek word, meaning repression. The ancient Egyptians did not call themselves the Sphinx, so what is the name of the Sphinx in Egyptian? Is Horus on the horizon? Ancient Egypt was a polytheistic country. It is the first step for mankind to explain the magic of nature and the creation of the world through the origin and myth of God. Horus is one of the most worshipped gods in Egypt. Horus, the god of falcon, is a god in the sky, which gave Pharaoh the power to rule this land and people. Egyptian rulers often associate themselves with the God of Horus. People think that Pharaoh is the incarnation of the God of Horus on earth. Gods like Horus, especially in Egyptian mythology, we can still see some gods. The first god is the god of jackals, not the god of wealth, but the god of jackals, which means to get rich anyway. This jackal god, his name is Anubis, and he is the god of the underworld. The second is the cat god named Pasteur. This cat god is very interesting. Cat has a wonderful pronunciation in Egyptian. Pronunciation is Miwu, which is very similar to the onomatopoeia of cats in our Chinese. "Meow", Miwu, then this is the cat god. The last one is called Sahmat. Sahmat is the head of a lion, and the human body just fell off with the Sphinx. Here we can see why ancient Egypt wanted the body and head to be a combination of two animals, which has its own tradition. So when did this first originate? Totem worship, which originated in ancient Egypt, and the ritual of such a mask. Because it has such a worship of animals, it may make such a mask to attend some ceremonies, which gives people such inspiration. That is to say, the somersaults of different animals can be linked together, so this Pasteur god means protection. Why does it mean protection? Because it is the head of a lion, it is dignified and protective. At this point, it is slightly related to the repression in ancient Greece, so people speculate that in front of the pyramids in Giza, such a huge sphinx was used to guard the tombs of ancient Egyptian pharaohs.

Let's see which Pharaoh its face depicts. Because we know that the ancient Greek sphinx, the sphinx, is a statue of a woman. Except that it is a statue of a woman, it is hard to say what it has to do with any special person. But this ancient Egyptian sphinx, this statue is different. The scarf he wears is a very typical scarf worn by ancient Egyptian pharaohs. This model is typical, with snake marks on the head. Why traces? Because its original snake is gone, it has experienced so many years of wind and rain and man-made destruction, but we can see that there is a sculpture in this place. This thing must be a snake, and this snake is not everyone's right to wear it on his turban, just in front of it, which is a symbol of Pharaoh.

So people have come up with such a reasoning, that is to say, if we can identify which specific Pharaoh's face this statue, the Sphinx, was carved with, then we can roughly know the year of birth and death of this Pharaoh. Then we can know who it belongs to and when it was built. So we see that these are statues of two pharaohs, not one pharaoh, but two pharaohs. On the left is Khufu's son Haffri, that is to say, this sphinx, the pyramid behind it, is also the owner of the second tallest pyramid in Egypt. He is Havre; The man on the right is Zander Frey, who is also the son of Khufri. He's Haffley's brother. He also ruled Egypt and was a Pharaoh. But after Khufu died, he succeeded Khufu as the ruler of Egypt, but his time was short. Three or four years later, he died. Not only dead, but also what's interesting? It is said that during the ancient kingdom, Pharaoh used to build his own pyramids in Giza, and they were all built in Giza, so Giza became synonymous with pyramids. However, instead of building his own pyramids in Giza, he built them in Ablava, north of Giza. The pyramids in this place are built very small. Why is this happening? Let's not talk about it, but in any case, he doesn't have his own tomb or pyramid building in Giza. He is also short-lived. Why? We can speculate, but in any case, he died three or four years later. His younger brother Havell began to take his place. As the ruler of the fourth dynasty in ancient Egypt, he continued to rule Egypt and built a huge pyramid. Then there was such a sphinx in front of the pyramid. Who does this sphinx look like? We can turn it back and look at this sphinx.

It might be better if the nose existed, but we can still see the mouth more or less clearly. What is the final conclusion of ordinary scholars after repeated comparisons and even some computer measurements? Although it is in front of the pyramid of Harvard, it is generally considered to be the building of Harvard Ruijin Tower, but people think it is more like his brother Zandre in appearance. That's why people have such an idea, so who built this pyramid? Did Harvard or his brother build it? If his brother built it, did his brother die mysteriously in the process of building it? If he died mysteriously, who inherited him? Who is making a profit? It's huff. After making a profit, Havel not only stole one of his brother's thrones, but also took his brother's pyramid as his own and built such a brilliant pyramid that attracted the attention of future generations. It's possible, but whether it's his brother's or his brother's, whether it's Jane Drey's or Harvard's, it's even suggested that it might be built by their father Khufu. But no matter who built it, their age is generally determined, that is, around 2500 BC and 4500 years ago.

It is generally believed that the Sphinx in ancient Egypt was used to guard the Pharaoh's graveyard. It is a combination of wisdom and courage, but some people have different understandings. This man is the great American prophet edgar cayce, who predicted from 1933 that the Sphinx was not built by the ancient Egyptians. Who is edgar cayce? Some people say that he is a psychologist, but in fact he is not an authentic psychologist. An authentic psychologist, whether he is trained or not, uses the knowledge of traditional psychology and the skills he has acquired, and then treats others in this way. Or no matter what level of illness, it is a mental illness, and he will treat people. Edgar cayce also treated people, but the method used was not psychological. He was completely a disease when he was crazy. Finally, he said a few words that made people wake up, and finally guessed what the disease was. Let's say it's a little superstitious, but this man is very powerful. Why is he so powerful? What he likes to do is to speculate what will happen in the future. He died in 1945. Many things may not have been experienced, but he succeeded in predicting. He said that there would be two world wars in the future, and as a result, two world wars really broke out; It is predicted that the securities market will crash at 1929, and sure enough, it will crash at that time. Later, some things were very, very mysterious, such as the independence of India and the founding of Israel. He predicted it more than ten years before it happened. No one knows whether this is the result of a study or whether it depends entirely on his wishful thinking, but in any case, he guessed many things right. Such a person, without such a background, will guess what kind of mystery this sphinx will have. I'm afraid people won't believe it, but because he is right in many things, people pay more attention to it when he says the Sphinx. What is he talking about? He said that more than 10,000 years ago, we humans had a very splendid civilization, and that was Atlantis. People believe that there is such a civilization, but there is no trace. What will it leave for future generations after it leaves? We don't know. Everything is in speculation. However, some people say that it is impossible for such a highly developed civilization to disappear at the bottom of the sea so easily, leaving no trace for future generations and telling some secrets to future generations. So people began to look for what it left us, and at the same time there were some guesses. Then, according to edgar cayce's speculation, he said, aren't you going to explore the meaning of the Sphinx? It means landmark building. What kind of landmark building? Tell future generations that this place is a special place, and the special place is to remind people that it hides amazing secrets. In other words, his guess is that there is an archive room under the Sphinx, which is the civilization of Oceania and Atlantis. All the beautiful things, all the records and all the files exist in a secret place. Where is this place? We can't let future generations lose it. Then there is a building above. This building is great, but it is different. Why is it different? It is a sphinx and a face, so people guess there should be such a place under it.

People began to doubt, but since he was somewhere else, no matter how he guessed, I don't know if it was legendary, but people were still fascinated by it and thought that what he said was probably not groundless. So people began to look around the Sphinx, hoping to find some clues around it. Looking around, I really found some passages that seem to lead to the bottom of this mysterious sphinx. If you can access it, there may really be some secrets in it, even if it is not the secret of Atlantis. If it can be discovered, it will make future generations feel very excited. But people follow these channels, and a * * * finds three channels, one at the tail, one at the foot and one at the back of the head. They all found such a channel, but when they walked in, they found it was a dead end. Why is there such a passage? People are also wondering whether it was left by the ancients or people before us, not the ancients who were so eager to find things. The road opened here is open, so I think there is nothing to open ahead, so I blocked it or gave up? We don't know this, but in these places, these channels have been discovered by us. So people began to guess whether his statement was right or wrong, which is still a mystery. We didn't find conclusive evidence, and he just guessed, so it's hard for us to say that he is right, or that there is some truth, so here comes the following problem. What's the problem? Edgar cayce's guess is that because Atlantis sank around 10500 BC, he said that the Sphinx was also built around 10500 BC.

So people keep looking. In an ancient inscription, the inscription is an ancient Egyptian writing carved on a stone and embossed on a wall. Then people really found such inscriptions in these words. The inscription said that Horus on the ground began to walk from the east bank or the other side of the winding river 70 days before the summer solstice, and began to walk this way. Then after 70 days, he and another magical combination on the ground appeared. So people began to analyze this inscription and began to look for its true meaning. So what does this Horus mean from shore to shore? People also began to walk according to the first 70 days of this summer solstice. From this shore to this shore, at best, it is near the pyramid, and there is nothing for them to understand the answer to this question. So people are very upset and wonder if we misunderstood. Later, a wise man really said, when we talk about the river winding on the ground from the horizon, we don't mean the river winding on the ground, nor does it mean the Nile on the ground. What river is it? There is also a river corresponding to us and the ground. What river is this? We all know that it is called the Milky Way now, and it is also winding. In the first seventy days of the summer solstice, people went to Giza to observe the eastern part of the Milky Way, and found that there really was a star and the sun, and a shining star and the sun appeared there. People began to observe the star and the sun, and the result of observation was that it really fell on the horizon after 70 days. Where did it land? As shown above. It really crossed the winding galaxy in the sky and came here. It was that point on the horizon that appeared 70 days later, and a constellation appeared in this place. What constellation? Leo. Horus and the constellation Leo are one, and now they are one. So people think that the ancient Egyptian inscription refers to this. Then we can know why the mysterious statue built in front of the pyramid is the body of a lion, not the body of a jackal, not the body of a baboon, not the body of other animals. He feels that the coupling between this thing and such an astronomical phenomenon coincides with their beliefs and their myths and legends.

What is the relationship between this astronomical phenomenon and the time of its birth? Yes People are looking at this star, and the sun has crossed the winding river. After 70 days, the moment when Leo combined with this star on the horizon was not recorded in the literature. What is this? Today is not the summer solstice, but the vernal equinox, which is a bit inconsistent with the facts. Why? Because of this inscription, it is speculated that this era, all this has a basic point, that is, it is speculated that the era of building this Sphinx is around 2500 BC, that is, it was built by Harvard. Then around 2500 BC, on the day of the summer solstice, the eastern horizon facing the Sphinx rose, which was not the time when such a star, the sun and Leo appeared on the horizon together. So people don't understand and say, why should the inscription be written like this? If this is what it means, we can be sure that the Sphinx is related to this astronomical phenomenon and this ancient myth and legend, so it faces the first 70 days and the last 70 days of the summer solstice. It should be facing east, just the day when the constellation Lion and the star sun appeared on the horizon after crossing the river, and then the lion faced it. This can explain everything, but it's not, it's 28 degrees off. Why? Later, people began to speculate that it is possible that the Sphinx was not built in 2500 BC, because we know that there are 12 constellations in the sky, which is what westerners call 12 constellations on the ecliptic. Because the earth revolves around the sun, the time when the constellation Leo rises from the east and meets the stars and the sun is different in different periods. So when does the star face the east of the Sphinx, and the sun and Leo can be combined in the morning? If this time can match, it happens to be the time when the Sphinx faced it, and that time may be the time when the Sphinx was built. Now science is more developed. It used to take a long time to calculate the membership fee in this way, but now it is calculated by computer, and the result will come out soon-65438 BC+00500 BC! It happened that this star crossed the winding river, and on the day of the summer solstice, it merged with Leo on the horizon and overlapped. This place is like the Sphinx of Giza seen from the east. Everything is so perfect! So people thought of such a mysterious age-is it really the time when the Sphinx was built in BC 10500? How else do you explain all this? With such a mystery, generations of Egyptians have been thinking hard about whether this is the case. If it really was a building more than 10,000 years ago, it could still be carved so beautifully, and such a big building was put there. At that time, people didn't know the pyramids at all. What does it mean to build it there? Is it a secret archives, archives palace, as Kathy thought, which was left to human beings and future generations before the disappearance of civilization like Atlantis?

In this case, we might as well keep our eyes open, whether it is a building more than 10 thousand years ago or a building thousands of years ago. The ups and downs it experienced later really condensed the whole human history, and at the same time we laughed at the performance of human beings in front of it, sometimes tragic and sometimes ridiculous. History is slipping away before our eyes. It didn't laugh, cry or get angry. It just keeps watching. It was a witness. This witness is not like what we imagined, like a wise old man watching everyone bit by bit and watching history happen around him. It's sad, too Why do you say that? That is to say, Egypt is a place with rivers and mountains, and another one is very, very famous. What is this? The desert in Egypt is very famous, and the yellow sand is very famous. So how many times and to what extent was the Sphinx buried by yellow sand? It's basically showing a neck. This is a painting that people painted later, but this painting is not out of nothing, it has historical experience. During the first 18 dynasty of the new kingdom, there was a Pharaoh named Thutmose IV. Before Thutmose IV became Pharaoh, that is, while his father was still in power, one day he went out to roam and came to a place. This place is a piece of yellow sand, and finally a head like a sphinx is exposed outside the sand. In order to avoid the wind, he hid in the sand in front of the Sphinx and slept for a while. At this moment, he suddenly felt a deep voice and said something to him. It says I'm the sphinx. Of course, I'm not sure what language it speaks. I guess it's Egyptian, or Thutmose wouldn't understand it. It says I'm a Sphinx, and I feel terrible now. Why? The sand around me is drowning me. If you can help me clean up the sand and make me feel good again, then you are the next Egyptian Pharaoh.

This sentence appeals to him very much. Why? We know that not every Pharaoh has such a son. If there is only one son, power will not be squeezed out. It will fall on his hand, the crown will be placed on his head, and the throne will sit under his ass. But unfortunately, the Egyptian Pharaoh had many sons, because he had many wives, and naturally he also had many sons. In this case, he has the right to inherit him. As the next Pharaoh, there will be more than one person. Which son prince doesn't want to be the next Pharaoh, the next god on earth, Horus on earth, to rule such a great country? Everyone wants to, but not everyone has the opportunity. Thutmose IV, I don't know if he is the so-called crowned prince. There is such a prince in Egypt called the coronation prince, which is actually to confirm that you are next. I don't think he is. If so, he wouldn't have such a dream. There is no need to dream like this. I don't need to clean you up. I am sure that I am the next Pharaoh. When he woke up, he thought it was a good sign, so he asked someone to clean up the sand around the Sphinx, which was the first time in ancient Egyptian history to clean up the Sphinx. After cleaning up, he not only cleaned up the scene, but also set up a huge monument in front of the Sphinx.

From this, we can see that in this picture, there are two front paws on both sides, and the monument in the middle is the monument of Thutmose IV Station, which is now called the Dream Monument. He wrote it, of course, in Egyptian hieroglyphics. We can see this clearly, so the main story here is how he slept here and had a dream. In this dream, how did the Sphinx promise him that if you clean it up for me, I promise you will be the next Pharaoh. No matter whether the dream is true or not, the dream monument exists, so the gravel and sand around the Sphinx began to be cleaned up bit by bit. After each cleaning, it is buried again several years later, and then cleaned again. Cleaning up should be said to be indispensable for future generations to see its complete image.

However, repeated cleaning has also brought some unnecessary, not unnecessary, perhaps inevitable damage to the huge building. What damage? It is a kind of injury caused by natural wind and rain and upward transpiration of groundwater. Gradually, it lost a lot of things. Anyway, it is getting worse every day. The more you fix it, the greater the damage. So what will happen in the future? Some people say it stands for eternity. If the Sphinx, which represents eternity, really collapses one day, will the concept of eternity in front of us suddenly collapse in our ideological realm and stop believing in eternity?
