The Magnificent Sphinx





The famous sphinx at Giza desert is the oldest so far that the Egyptian civilization had left. The original titles and names for the sphinx in ancient Egypt were many such as " Pw Her , Her M Akht , Shesp Ankh …" And more. While the title that survived the most is a Greek title which is "sphinx", in the old Greek language that title means a creature that gathers between a human and an animal. The sphinx of Giza is 70 m long and 21 m high, dates back to the 4th dynasty, reign of king Chephren, about 2600 B C. "I painted this in the year 2000"
