A New geological study shows that the great sphinx of Giza is 800,000 Years old
The Great Sphinx on the Giza plateau in Egypt is one of the most mysterious and enigmatic monuments on the planet’s surface.
It is an ancient structure that has baffled investigators since its discovery, and no one has been able to accurately date the Sphinx because there are no written records or reports of it in the past.
Now, two Ukrainian researchers have suggested a new controversial theory, claiming that the Great Sphinx of Egypt is about 800,000 years old. A scientifically based revolutionary theory.
The study was presented at the International Conference of Geoarchaeology and Archaeomineralogy held in Sofia titled: GEOLOGICAL ASPECT OF THE PROBLEM OF DATING THE GREAT EGYPTIAN SPHINX CONSTRUCTION.
The authors of this paper are scientists Manichev Vjacheslav I. (Institute of Environmental Geochemistry of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine) and Alexander G. Parkhomenko (Institute of Geography of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine).
The starting point of these two experts is the paradigm shift initiated by West and Schoch, a ‘debate’ intended to overcome the orthodox view of Egyptology referring to the possible remote origins of the Egyptian civilization and, on the other, physical evidence of water erosion present at the monuments of the Giza Plateau.
Absolutely. Dry at the end of the ice age, wet for several thousand years. Rapidly drying out at the beginning of the ancient civilization. Climate change!
Which proves unequivocally that ancient astronuts taught the Egyptians everything they know and built the pyramids.
And get Dr. Fauxci’s opinion to corroborate
Aw, c’mon man! She doesn’t look a day over 60,000!
Now THERE is a crackpot claim nobody can beat.
And Biden won the election. They have a study proving it.
I agree 2500BC-ish
Lol!
I just made that up.
Maybe they are referring to the rocks it was carved from.

I won’t believe this unless they find the trail of bones.
Good answer. I was going to say blue.
The layers of sandstone from which the base and body are carved may be near a million years old, but the carving is not nearly so.
Not much of anything,if anything,survived the great flood.
I’ll take post diluvian for 3500-4500....
Those of us who watched Stargate the movie or SG-1 knew this many years ago...
What a waste of grant money...
Not Necessarily true, the older ruins associated with Lake Titicaca basin (ruins which extend under the lake, said lake which has been slowly drying up for a very long time as it empties into some salt fens) show evidence that the population and their animals drowned.
A late 19th century travelogue that my Grandparents owned spoke of the abundance of bones that could be found.
Likewise the depth of soil deposits over ruins that have been excavated demand either vast antiquity or some other event where deposits could me made more rapidly.
Lake Titicaca, BTW, has also been said to have once been near sea level, which suggest that the mountains have risen since those structures were built on its shores, As there are terraced agricultural fields now above the frost line in some places they would have had to have been at a lower altitude when they were being worked.
The Sphinx, being located within its hewn out enclosure, could have had similar protection, granted on a smaller scale, to what the mountainous basin may have afforded the Altiplano as well as the Salar de Uyuni, a massive salt flats in its own basin further south.
Actually, I wondered that. So the ice age never hit Egypt like the rest of the world. Interesting.
