One of the theorists also notes that the statue, if it was actually done many thousands of years before the pharaohs built the pyradmids, would have been looking at the Sun during the day and the stars in Leo at night.

Interesting. Those old Egyptians were tuned into a lot of natural phenomenon, so orienting the statue of a lion to look at the constellation of Leo makes sense.
“phenomenon, so orienting the statue of a lion to look at the constellation of Leo makes sense.”
Timing fits the Ages of Man dictated by the astrological sign associated with sunrise on March 21st, Spring equinox. Precession of the equinox cycle of ~26,000 years divided by 12 zodiac signs = ~2,150 years per Age. We are nearing the Age of Aquarius, though we sung about it when I was a teenager!
