Soft Cover. Condition: New. 1997. 384p. Is the Sphinx of prehistoric origin? Why was it built? In thisprovocative, rigorously argued report, revisionist Egyptologists Hancock(The Fingerprints of the Gods) and Bauval (The Orion Mystery) join forcesto answer these questions and more as they examine the Sphinx and itsrelation to the other monuments of the Giza plateau. Working from thepremise that the Giza complex encodes a message, they begin with recentlydiscovered geological evidence indicating that the deep erosion patternson the flanks of the Sphinx were caused by 1000 years of heavy rain. Suchconditions last existed in Egypt at the end of the last ice age, about10,000-9,000 B.C., meaning that the Sphinx may be more than 12,000 yearsold (not the generally accepted 4500 years). The authors go on to suggest,using computer simulations of the sky, that the pyramids, representing thethree stars of Orion's Belt, along with associated causeways andalignments, constitute a record in stone of the celestial array at thevernal equinox in 10,500 B.C. This moment, they contend, represents ZepTepi, the "First Time," often referred to in the hieroglyphic record. Theyshow how the initiation rituals of the Egyptian pharaohs replicate onEarth the sun's journey through the stars in this remote era, and theysuggest that the "Hall of Records" of a lost civilization may be locatedby treating the Giza Plateau as a template of these same ancient skies.These daring, well-argued theories will raise the hackles of orthodoxEgyptologists, but that doesn't mean they're wrong.
