The first attempt to dig it out dates back to 1400 BC, when the young Tutmosis IV, falling asleep beneath the giant head, dreamt that he was promised the crown if he would only unbury the Sphinx.
Schoch claims that the amount of water erosion they feel that the Sphinx has experienced indicates a construction date no later than the 6th millennium BC or 5th millennium BC, at least two thousand years before the widely accepted construction date and 1500 years prior to the accepted date for the beginning of Egyptian civilization.

The sale of BC Rail was identified as a key element in last December's RCMP raid on the provincial legislature, according to a summary of search warrant materials also released yesterday by the Associate Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of British Columbia.
That document, which suggests the $1-billion sale of BC Rail may be tainted by influence-peddling, fraud and corruption, is a five-page summary of the police investigation into breach-of-trust allegations and seven searches on Dec. 28 at the B.C. legislature and the homes and offices of people with ties to the provincial or federal Liberals.

The Western name "Sphinx" was given to it based on the legendary Greek creature with the body of a lion and the head of a lady, however the Egyptian Great Sphinx has the head of a man, and therefore the name is not technically accurate.
