Re #6

I remember that I heard the same thing while watching a documentary on Sphinx some years ago.

Yeah. It was Mystery of the Sphinx, 1993, narrated by Charlton Heston. (I remembered it was Heston; so I looked up his name on imdb.com and then googled it.)

Maybe the comet wiped out more than the mastodons.

Like maybe the Sphinx was just one of the Signs of the Zodiac scattered around the globe and the only one to survive the comet collision. Hmmmm?
