The apocryphal Ethiopic Book Of Enoch, otherwise known as 1 Enoch, is quite the wild read, isn’t it?
Taking 1 Enoch to it’s logical conclusion, those creatures in Egyptian hieroglyphics and scuplture were not mythical, being the result of dabbling by fallen angels and their half human offspring, and the flood sent to kill them all is what eroded the Sphinx.
Are there any other large sculptures known in ancient Egypt, to have been surrounded by a moat? I see no practical reason for a moat per se, so if there was such a thing, I’d be more apt to term it a reflecting pool.
Reflecting pool makes more sense.
In any event, when the area dried up the Sphinx was de-moated...
I believe most Egyptian temples had sacred lakes or sacred pools. But if the Sphinx is way older than pharaonic Egypt, it may not have had one.
According to Edgar Cayce, there is a depository of hidden records buried somewhere around the Sphinx. It may have already been discovered, but it’s contents once more hidden away because what they say may be more than the average civilization can take.
