The Great Sphinx is a statue located in Giza, Egypt. The Spirit of the Sphinx was said to reside inside the statue, guarding its treasures which included the Ankh of Osiris.

History[]

Some scholars believed that the Sphinx pre dated the Egyptians by thousands of years. When the Egyptians found the Sphinx, it had the face of an animal, and they re-carved it into the likeness of the Pharaoh Khefren.[2]

While on his father's world lecture tour, Indiana Jones visited the Sphinx with tutor Miss Seymour in 1908. After Miss Seymour informed the boy that the Sphinx was built around 2500 BC, the pair headed for the Great Pyramids.[1]

In 1934, with the help of the Staff of Aaron, Jones discovered the Omega Book buried beneath the Sphinx.[3]
