Robert Temple and Olivia Temple explore ancient Egyptian history and symbolism in The Mystery of the Sphinx. Their work examines theories surrounding the origins, purpose, and hidden meanings connected to the Great Sphinx of Giza, one of the world’s most famous monuments located on the Giza Plateau. The Temples discuss archaeological evidence, ancient texts, and alternative interpretations that question conventional timelines and propose deeper symbolic or astronomical significance behind the Sphinx and its relationship to ancient Egyptian civilization.
