In The Message of the
Sphinx, Graham, and Robert Bauval, author of The
Orion Mystery, present a tour de force of historical and
scientific detective work that unravels the millenial code
embodied in the structures at Giza, Egypt. This new
collaborative effort is based largely on the research which
Robert did for The Orion Mystery.
Using sophisticated computer
simulations of ancient skies, they unravel the riddle of the
Sphinx, and they present a startling new theory concerning
the enigmatic Pyramid Texts and other archaic Egyptian
scriptures.

Above: The Great Sphinx of
Giza, as this nineteenth-century photograph shows, has spent
a large part of its known history covered up to its neck in
desert sands. Whilst thus covered, its body has not been
subject to wind-erosion, yet the body is heavily weathered.
Could there have been some other weathering agency at work?
And it is of interest to note that the surviving granite
casing blocks seem to have been carved on their inner faces
to fit over the limestone core-blocks at a time when
these were already heavily marked by erosion. Since the
granite casing has the look of other Old Kingdom Egyptian
architecture (while the limestone core blocks do not), this
may be taken as further evidenc of the theory that an
ancient, revered and much-eroded structure was restored and
renovated by the Old Kindom Pharaohs.
