The tiny, disproportionate HEAD of the Sphinx is what was NOT carved out the limestone bedrock. The BODY is carved OUT OF the flat bedrock which comprises the Giza plateau. The BODY was rained on long enough to create deep weathering patterns. Last time it rained was 12,500 years ago. I agree with you. Don't just watch the Discovery channel. Go to Cairo and see for yourself. And don't just believe the dogma of the current authorities either. Take the lesson of history and see how almost always new evidence is resisted by those who are identified with the "experts" of the day. Be open to new evidence. Show me new evidence and I will embrace it. -George Smith "Once I shot an elephant in my pajamas.
