It's a huge ball of yarn.

:') That's nice and off-topic, eh? ;') Probably some 18th dynasty stuff (assuming there is any chamber, as opposed to a natural grotto of some kind), because when Thutmose IV had his Dream Stele carved, he mentioned that the Sphinx sat on top of a gateway. No such gateway has been found per se since the Dream Stele was carved, unless it wasn't documented, or the documentation has failed to survive.

A big stone mouse.
