This settle the debate over what the Sphinx at Giza looked like when new, yes?
No. The head of the Great Sphinx has clearly been recarved, as it shows very little wind erosion, but protruded above the sands that covered the body for most of the past 4500 years. The facial characteristics of the current face of the Great Sphinx appear to be those of the 25th Dynasty (the Nubian dynasty), and the Dream Stele (from the 18th) documents that the Sphinx had been covered and basically unknown to the Egyptians of that time. Herodotus saw a lot of stuff while in Egypt, and wrote about it, yet doesn't mention the Sphinx.
Robert Schoch's suggestion is that the original head was that of Mehit.

btw, I used to rely on the cached versions of search hits, because the venerable old CPU/OS oftens chokes on https links. Now more often than not, Google claims the cache which is right in the resulting links doesn’t exist. Must be their tireless hunt to eliminate dissent.
