Geology and the Great Sphinx

An older civilization built all of it and Egyptians just moved in (same with the Mayans).You should check out the book Fingerprints of the Gods. You can find it here.The author's website is here.I read the book. Its not totally convincing but at least the author has some cool stories to tell. One is about bribing guards and climbing to the top of the great pyramid at night to watch the sun rise.There's a lot to cover in the book, and a lot of his claims are rejected.About the sphinx though, and I don't remember exactly, but the point that it faces on the horizon lines up with where the constelation leo crossed it in the past. The thing is that leo didn't cross there since thousands of years before the egyptians, around the time when it last was rainy there.I can tell you more about what I remember from the book if you want me to.

Too late, although I don't consider it a waste. A lot of his claims were pretty far out there but I don't think he is a total crank.The book was good, IMO. Hancock is a pretty good story teller and he went on some cool adventures. But I don't read many books so maybe my standards are low.Thanks for the link to The Hall of Maat. I haven't had time yet, but it looks like a really cool site as the whole alternative history thing is interesting to me.
