the great Sphinx
Great Sphinx of Giza commonly referred to as the Sphinx of Giza or just the Sphinx, is an immense stone sculpture of a creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human.

It is the largest and most famous Sphinx, situated at the Giza Plateau adjacent to the Great Pyramids of Giza on the west bank of the Nile River.

It is the largest monolith statue in the world, standing 73.5 meters (241 feet) long, 19.3 meters (63 feet) wide, and 20.22 meters (66.34 feet) high.

It is the oldest known monumental sculpture, and is commonly believed to have been built by ancient Egyptians of the Old Kingdom during the reign of the Pharaoh Khafra (c. 2558–2532 B.C.).However, some recent studies have suggested that the Sphinx was built as long ago as 7000 B.C
