The Sphinx is purported to have been built around 2500 B.C., however with all
the recent research surrounding it there is finally a growing number of
scientists and archaeologists willing to believe that this date is false. The
structure is also a marvel of engineering. Standing 66 feet high and over 240
feet long, this great monument of ancient times faces due east to catch the
first rays of the sun (and the first sight of the rising constellations in the
night sky.) Time and weather have taken their toll, however and the entire
structure is heavily eroded by what can only have been water. When did it rain
heavily in the Sahara? Far more than 4000 years ago. It has been estimated that
the last period of heavy precipitation occurred over 8000 years ago. The Sphinx
shows signs of very heavy rain erosion, meaning that it had to have been
standing in the pouring rain for a great many years. While scientists argue
about the date of its building, let's discuss another topic just as fascinating.
Back in the earlier part of this century, Edgar Cayce, the "Sleeping
Prophet" did several readings stating that in the period that we are
currently in (the late 1990's) a chamber beneath the Sphinx would be found by a
few "initiates" of the day. Within this chamber would be found the
entire recorded history of Atlantis and of early Egypt. This Hall of Records
would bring to light a whole new history of humankind, shattering the long-held
beliefs of our present civilization. Cayce's timeline of the building of the
Sphinx and of The Great Pyramid corresponds to the present research of, among
others, Graham Hancock, Robert Bauval, and John Anthony West. This date of
approximately 10,000-12,000 years ago was the same time-frame Cayce gave for the
final destruction and evacuation of Atlantis. The Atlanteans fled to many areas
of the world, including Egypt, North America, and South America. But is there a
chamber below the Sphinx?
