Joe Rogan Reacts to Secrets of Egypts Great Sphinx
Today on Crunch, let us see what Joe Rogan and Robert Schoch have to say about the age of this colossal figure.
One of history's most perplexing mysteries rises from the Sahara in Egypt. Its stone eyes peer out of an almost human face, surveying a land of ancient tombs and endless sand. For millennia, it has weathered the ravages of time and witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations. Yet, after all these hundreds of years, the Great Sphinx of Giza remains an enigma. Just when we believe we are about to solve its eternal riddles, the Sphinx reveals another layer of secrecy. One of the biggest mysteries in Ancient Egypt that swirls around this famous structure is, when was it built.
For years, Egyptologists and archaeologists have thought the Great Sphinx of Giza to be about 4,500 years old. However, some recent studies have suggested the Sphinx was much older than mainstream archaeologists, and Egyptologists claim it to be.

No burials ever took place in the pyramids, ever. The sphinx is from 24,000 years before Egyptians when Africa was a jungle and the Lioness Goddess ruled and is the reason for only one and not a pair, why it is not aligned with the pyramids. The Egyptians defaced the lioness with their pharaoh as the culling of the divine feminine for the patriarchal uprising.

One noticeable difference with the Sphinx and the body is that the head is much smaller in size by comparison. It is believed that the head was originally a Lions Head and later carved into the Sphinx which would explain the small size. I believe the Egyptians did not build neither the Sphinx nor the Pyramids, but they inherited them as such. The positioning of the Pyramids alignment dates back before the time of the Egyptians. The Anciant Sumerians I believe were far more advanced than anyone can imagine given the stone work found around the world dating back thousands of years that we cannot duplicate today. Maybe someday we will unlock the secret that eludes us today on how advanced ancient civilization really was.

- Before the sphinx was coverd in some sort of plaster to protect it from detorriating any further a wheater pattern could be seen that could only be caused by heavy rain fall. - The last time such heavy rain fall occured in Egypt was +/- 10000 years b.c. - The oldest parts of the temple in front of the sphinx appear to be older than the 3 big pyramids, all the pieces of the temple that are from the same time as the 3 big pyramids are believed to be renovation/restoration work. - If you look at an arial picture of the 3 big pyramids of Giza they depict the position of the constalation of orion from +/- 10000 years b.c.? - The Sphinx is aligned with the constellation of Leo around 10500 B.C. during the start of the age of Leo. Archeologists always thought that the face of the sphinx represent the pharaoh Khafre. Frank Domingo, a New York Police Department forensic expert once compared the head on a small statue of the pharaoh Khafre with the head of the sphinx and concluded that they don't look alike. The forensic draftsman concluded after carefull research that the head of the sphinx most likely resembles an African individual (Nubian). Pliny the Elder's account of the Great Sphinx dating to the 1st century CE states: "[the inhabitants of the region] are of the opinion that a King Harmais is buried inside it...." (Pliny Natural History Book 36, Chapter 17. ) It is thought that the burial may not have occurred during the actual building of the Sphinx but much later. Could the face also be this King Harmais, recarved at the same later date...? The "secret Chamber" beneath the Sphinx is not really secret at all. It was known about for centuries, but forgotten in our own time. It was last described in print in 1953... yes, as recent as that. Countless subsequent speculations about secret chambers have all been published without anyone having any recollection or knowledge of the many accounts of the real secret chamber that have appeared in print since 1672. Published accounts of the chamber appeared several times in print during the 281 years that have elapsed from the first to the last mention of it. The location and measurements of the entrance shaft are known, as is the location of an apparent "burial chamber", which has been entered by several people. It appears that no-one today that claims to be an expert on the sphinx knows anything about these previous accounts in print. A third tunnel into the Sphinx body is located on the north side of the sphinx, and has not been opened since 1926, when Emile Braize opened it. There are photographs available showing 2 workmen stood within this opening.... This tunnel has never been explored since it was sealed by Emile Braize in 1926 with bricks and mortar. There is also a little known cavity beneath the altar of the sphinx, which today is covered with a modern metal grille, but descends into a cavity below. During Henry Salt's "restoration" works in the early 1800's he entered this cavity, Apparently a passage ran from this cavity, again, into the body of the Sphinx, however, following an argument with Count De Forbin, (author of "Travels in the Holy land"), Salt and Forbin alledgedly had an argument about this cavity, with Forbin insisting someone should crawl along the passage contained within, but it appears Salt could not be bothered and "dealt with the situation" in the manner of a diplomat, simply by sealing the tunnel off and settling the matter by brute force! This brick wall remains until today.. and still, once again, no-one has even thought of knocking it down to have a look! All of these tunnels are well documented, but seem to be ignored by mainstream egyptologists... (surprise surprise). But it is all out there...

Those people aren't scienteist in my eyes, they're ideologists. A true scientist follow the evidence wherever it may lead, if new facts are presented new conclusions must be considered.

The alignment of the Sphinx is off when compared with the alignment of the pyramids. The direction the Sphinx looks towards is in alignment with the constellation Leo, but in our ancient past. It can be traced back to a time when the constellation Leo was prominent on the horizon and fell directly in line with the gaze of the statue. If I remember correctly, that alignment only happens during a time period between 10,000 to 12,000 BC. The Spinx was built to face Leo in our ancient past.

Egypt had a written language so we have good records it is less of a mystery than most suppose.
The fact that the head of the Sphinx is way smaller than the rest of it points to the likely possibility that the head was carved out of the original head which was much bigger than the one we see today. It makes no sense that they would create the Sphinx and then give it a pea head. My theory is that the Egyptian civilisation was built around the Sphinx that was already there and one of the pharaohs at some point had the head of the Sphinx recarved in their own image from what ever the original head was. I think that this has been done several times all around the world, civilizations have been built on top of the remains of even older ones. We find smaller stones built on top of huge megalithic stone slabs with totally different construction methods indicating that they were built by totally different peoples.

Now that sites like Gobekli Tepe have been dated to about 12000 years old, a similar date for the Sphinx seems to me to be quite reasonable.
Based on the evidence the only conclusion is that it wasn’t built by the Egyptians because it’s evidence of construction suggests it was before their time. I believe there was a rise and fall of a great technological advance society that pre dates our understanding or rather our acceptance of their existence.

Having a newer civilization happen upon a massive rock that already resembles something they would see in every day culture, (i.e. seeing shapes among the clouds) and then deciding to carve a huge statue out of it to really immortalize the happenstance seems the most likely explanation. The rock is immeasurably old, but the statue was carved much much later. All the different chambers and burial tombs and refacing was probably done by future leaders and/or vandals.

Most bedrock and quarry areas are already 10s of thousands of years old. Of course it was carved on an old Rock unless they built a new rock to then carve up. That would be ridiculous.
They are probably both right. 2,000-3,000 years after Gobekli Tempe, someone built a huge lion monument. Then, down the line, an Egyptian king said, "Put my face on that shit."
The temple of the sphinx shows the same weathering and massive stones preserving the old ones, suggesting Egyptians were at the time trying to preserve something much older than themselves
Sphinx was mad earlier than the pyramids. The quality of stone used in the sphinx was prone to sand and wind erosion.
I've been following this discussion of older, wiped out civilizations, since the time I stumbled into Rogan's podcasts which led me to Hancock et al about 9 months ago. I read with some frequency but these theories whacked me in the head. I had no idea. Someone commented that he saw the Sphinx when a child and saw the water erosion on it. More power to him. When I was a child I saw a photo of the Sphinx and didn't think much of it but I only had one photo in some textbook and that was it. Even if they had shown those pictures of the sides of the Sphinx showing erosion produced by water (whether rain or flood) it wouldn't have meant anything to me. Same with the Younger Dryas, a new term now engraved in my head. Then I saw another explanation of periodic catastrophes afflicting the earth (in KZread, of course!) and something that really grabbed my medula and won't let go. Geologists took core samples in Iceland going down to 2 miles or so and after analysis they saw evidence of a geological & meteorological catastrophe that occurred about 12,000 years ago. Looking at that graph was fascinating and terrifying. Everything is "normal" for thousands of years and then BOOOM! and then back to "normal" again till the next event. It's great discussion and I am sitting on the fence watching the experts, whether degreed in Archeology and the other 'gys or not, debate whether civilization started 6K years ago or much earlier. This knowledge is consequential, duh, not only intellectually but these monoliths are the tea leaves, the bird's entrails, to see our future by understanding the past. It appears that our fate does not lie in our stars, but in our monoliths. Reminds me of a scifi book by Niven and Pournelle I read eons ago, the mote in god's eye, where the first aliens encountered by humans concealed a great secret, they had a violent past, their civilizations destroyed by war and each destroyed civilization formed a new layer in their planet. They knew about their nature and preserved their knowledge in special museums to use when ready to start a new civilization. So, Gobleki Tepi. I am amazed that most of it is still under tons of earth. Uncover that museum left by a previous civilization and see our stars.
I take all the mainstream "experts" with a huge grain of salt afte the last couple of years. Thank you very much!
That’s why I love KMT and it’s history every layer pulled back leads to more questions. What we do know for certain is that a great ancient civilization built it.
There's definitely something wrong with the sphinx story. The Egyptians were so precise with all their monuments, but all of a sudden said, "Hey let's build a big ass lion body with a mismatched tiny human head." Ummmm no!👎

It's interesting stuff. I'm just an armchair expert but I feel like it's completely plausible that some of those statues/pyramids could be much older than what's accepted among the historians.
It seems to date it at around the same time as Göbeklitepe in Turkey which is widely confirmed at being made around 10k BC. There should be more serious investigation into who those people were and what level of stonemasonry they were wielding. Archaeologists generally just give you a lazy shrug when you ask them about this.
still just basically guesswork..
Let’s say it was built 4500 years ago and let’s say a 28 year period…………. Wow a dart board would be just as accurate

There are claims on YT of rooms beneath the Sphinx, with Egyptian hieroglyphs, and a library of scrolls but I don't if it's true or not.
I always thought it was built during the 'age of Leo' (10750 BCE to 8600 BCE?) and originally was a Lion. At the end of the age of Leo it was then changed to its current depiction.
The only complaint I have about this video is that it ended. Great stuff!
👍Great Video .😉The Inventory Stela, however, states unequivocally that the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx existed long before Khufu (The Sphinx much, much longer) and that he built his temple near the "house of the Sphinx" and so possibly only renovated the Great Pyramid. Regardless of the interpretation as it concerns the Pyramid, it states the Sphinx was already there a great while. The Stela also mentions that lightening struck the tail of the nemes headdress of the Sphinx and destroyed it. This of course could only have happened if the Sphinx already existed in Khufu's time.

Ever since i learned about Gobelki Tepe i find the theory of the sfinx dating to 10k BCE or so to be not all that crazy.
My theory is simple. There has been world conquerors since the beginning of time. Egyptians simply took over what another civilization did but kept the sphinx and everything else as it’s just a marvel. Centered themselves around it as it is a great sculpture.

I find Shauk's work fascinating research and compelling.
I can remember as a young child first seeing pictures of the Sphinx, and the first thing I thought was that it had a lot of water ware on it. Then being told that it was 5000 years old seemed possible, until I started to learn more about geology and the weather that was prevalent in the region. By the time I started middle school I had already questioned the age that I had been taught. And now there is a large enough body of evidence to make a reasonable declaration that it could be much older. I feel vindicated in my childish beliefs. A very similar thing happen with the Yellowstone area. As a child everything I had been taught said that there was a Volcano under the area. But existing opinion said no. Again I was vindicated in the 1980s when scientists suddenly decided that there was a giant coldarra there and that a Super Volcano lay beneath the area. And now there have been at least a half dozen Super Volcanoes Identified around the world. Just because scientist say one thing does not always make it right and as time goes by, the proof of things come out. Sometimes common sense is more accurate than scientist. As Sherlock Holmes says, if all other theories are wrong, the simplest is the answer. The simple answer for the erosion is that it is a lot older than we originally thought. The simplest answer for hot springs and geysers in the Yellowstone is that there is a volcano under it. And we know that for a fact now. The Volcano I mean.

Interesting theory.
Khafre's Sphinx dates to the Early Old Kingdom. The weathering you see on the body of the Sphinx happened before it even was carved out of the ground, long before Egypt was even a civilization. The whole plateau has an incredible amount of Limestone deposit. All they had to do was dig down and around to excavate the form of the Great Sphinx. The weathering from water over the eons would have made it easier to excavate. I wouldnt be surprised if at least a portion of what became the head wasnt naturally exposed before excavation began.

10 years ago I was at a Halloween party. I was greatly depressed because a girl I loved had just broken up with me.

I understand there’s a gift shop in there, too.

The carved head as we know it now doesn’t have the same weathering patterns as parts of the body and nobody really doubts that the rock itself is ancient. When Egyptologists talk about the age of the Sphinx, they are talking about the construction of what it appears to be right now, not how old the original formation is.

The head is also much smaller in proportion to the body which is why many have suggested it was re-carved later. The original may have been a Lion or Anubis head. It don’t think Egyptians were skilled enough to carve a massive statue out of bedrock but too lazy remove the erosion marks.

That is why cancel culture is a horrible thing. People are terrified to even speak their voices, why would they even try to talk to people when others like them receive the most unfair forms of treatment on a frequent basis? They also do a lot of work, A LOT. They do not have the time to even be looking at theories 9 times out of 10, because of the huge amount of work they have on their plate, along with maintaining families typically. The best thing competent people can do is to not join the vultures, including friends. Use your own decision-making capabilities to form logical conclusions and don’t be hateful when providing your knowledge, they do that out of ignorance and not wanting to be wrong most often.

They do, they have. But as always, it's far easier to relentlessly spew bullshit than it is to debunk it. They can claim all this weathering as something, but the short answer is none of them contribute by producing proper peer reviewed and published work; because none of the claims actually hold any basis. Besides, being a public speaker or persona and debating people on Egyptology is not part of what they do. It's not quite as stupid as say, flat-earth; there is legitimate questions, circumstantial evidence and possibilities that are enticing to people who want to believe a fantastical story. But the short answer is it's very likely far more mundane than that.
