This video is a real historical resource for those with an interest in The Great Sphinx of Egypt, as I show some extremely rare footage of the Sphinx from the early 1900s to the 1930s, as well as dozens of vintage excavations photos and a study of the relics that were found, and are now seemingly lost in museum store rooms around the world.

The Great Sphinx is a true enigma and today, although it is perfectly presented for tourism, so much is missing the the enclosure, such as buildings, walls, temples and important artefacts.

This video will open your eyes to the true recent history of this amazing monument.
