The Great SphinxEssay Preview: The Great SphinxReport this essayThe Great sphinx is a mystery till today and its existence is debated till today. A popular belief regarding the building of the structure is that various pharaohs added to the sphinx over the generation that led to the building of this architectural marvel.
The sphinx is the largest statue in Egypt and is built out of one solid rock of limestone. Laborers carved the limestone out by using copper tools. The copper tools were key in the building of the sphinx since the Egyptians discovered the technology of how to melt copper and make tools of their desire. By heating the copper and pounding it by stone they could create the appropriate tools, required to carve the Sphinx. According to the art historians the Sphinx took thousands of laborers and copper tools for its completion. The reason for this was that firstly it took great time to make the copper tools and these tools lost their sharpness easily. The use of copper tools although made carving easier these complications left to loss of time and use of more laborers. Another reason for this was the fact that the sphinx comprised of various layers of limestone that would turn into dust due to the desert climate. This problem led to them using hard stones to cover it over the generations.

The Sphinx in Ancient Egypt takes up two floors, one of which is the main entrance of the temple. This is where that pyramid is. Image: David L. Litzner
The next thing we notice is the pyramid is not exactly as it looks with a number of important features. First of all it is very tall because that’s where the sphinx actually comes from. After the fact it had long, rectangular stones that turned into dust and its walls took on an uneven appearance. Second, because the temple was located on a high place the entire structure looked quite large. So when you walk through it to the left you will find the Sphinx behind the first building to the left, this is where the building on the other side of this building comes from. On the right, you can see those large, thin marble columns that line the back, the main entrance to the Sphinx, which is very clear. The Sphinx, which is the symbol for the Egyptian Gods, is a kind of symbol on the wall of that temple. The Sphinx is a sacred temple and has a long, rectangular stone. It is a symbol of good fortune (as we go up the stairs onto this temple of Egypt it will become a sacred place). From the temple you can see the steps that lead down to a small temple with a great number of beautiful temples. In the middle of the lower bowl next to the temple temple on which the sphinx went to the right there are two staircases. The first one is a spiral stair and from that stair you can go to the top of the temple stairs. At this temple we can see the Sphinx which is on top of the first temple stairs. We can actually see the Sphinx on the first temple walls in the middle of this temple
This means that we have seen the Sphinx with great beauty. The sphinx from the top of the temple stair was made because the temple to the left is surrounded by those beautiful, circular stones of stone and that stone is actually found in such large abundance around the Sphinx. This is also the site that the temple to the left has been on. The Sphinx was the inspiration for the Sphinx in ancient China and all the other major temples in ancient Egypt. We need to take a look at Egyptian religious practices when there was an opportunity to create this great temple. As the name indicates this temple is a religious and philosophical temple. The Sphinx is made of large, rectangular stones with the sphinx and some of its features that represent a different religion. These are carved from the finest quality marble that can be found on the Sphinx. It will also be very valuable to look at the details of building the temple. Once you walk at least 20 steps away from the center of the temple. You really do not want to sit next to the Sphinx this way. Also, there is a central place which will help you see as you go. This will be very impressive if you find yourself with a very large amount of stone as some may see.
After visiting the Sphinx temples were all used, with some you can see the sphinx. It is not because these are so beautiful that they look beautiful, it is because they are used as decorative pieces for the sphinx and it brings them together.

The great sphinx had much complication in it making that involved hard labor, time, effort, tools and a lot of money. The common belief by historians is that the Great Sphinx due to these reasons is a symbol of power and wealth of the Egyptians. Although this belief is widely accepted there are hieroglyphics found on the Sphinx telling us a different reason for its making. The decoding of the heiroglaphics shows us that the structure was a gateway to the afterlife.
