EDITORS COMMENTS
In the enigmatic heart of Egypt, the Sphinx, an iconic symbol of ancient Egyptian civilization, hides a fascinating secret. This photograph, taken in 1913, reveals the remarkable discovery of hidden temples and a complex network of tunnels and stairways within the hollow head of the Sphinx. Professor George Andrew Reisner, an esteemed archaeologist and Egyptologist, led the groundbreaking exploration that unveiled these hidden gems. The discovery of these subterranean structures challenged the conventional understanding of the Sphinx and added a new layer to the rich tapestry of Egyptian history. The diagrammatic view in this photograph offers a cross-sectional perspective of the hidden temples and the intricate stairway that spirals upwards within the Sphinx's head. The temples, adorned with intricate carvings and pillars, are reminiscent of the grandeur of ancient Egyptian architecture. The presence of these structures within the Sphinx raises intriguing questions about the purpose and significance of the Sphinx in ancient Egyptian culture. The hidden temples and stairways are connected by a series of tunnels and chambers, some of which lead to what is believed to be the tomb of the Sphinx. The discovery of these structures provides valuable insights into the architectural and engineering prowess of the ancient Egyptians. The photograph also reveals the presence of a spherical chamber and a pyramid-like structure within the Sphinx's head, further fueling the fascination and intrigue surrounding this remarkable discovery. The Middle Eastern country's history continues to reveal its secrets, offering endless opportunities for exploration and discovery.
