The Sphinx: Egypt's Greatest Mystery

The Great Sphinx of Giza is the most recognisable statue in the world - and one of the most mysterious. Even its Western name is misleading, since the monument bears little resemblance to the sphinx of ancient Greek mythology. Conflicting stories about who built it and why have circulated since ancient times. These include tales of what lies inside… In this episode, Dr Chris Naunton joins Matt Lewis to explore how the Sphinx was likely made; the evidence for who made it; and the many myths that surround it to this day.Echoes of History is a Ubisoft podcast, brought to you by History Hit. Hosted by: Matt LewisEdited by: Tim ArstallProduced by: Matt Lewis, Robin McConnellSenior Producer: Anne-Marie LuffProduction Coordinator: Beth DonaldsonExecutive Producers: Etienne Bouvier, Julien Fabre, Steve Lanham, Jen BennettMusic:Bayek Of Siwa by Sarah SchachnerNomads Of The White Desert by Sarah SchachnerCthonic Invasion by Sarah SchachnerPtolemy's Lament by Sarah SchachnerIf you liked this podcast please subscribe, share, rate & review.
