Robert Schoch's theory on the Sphinx suggests it is much older than believed, based on weathering patterns indicating heavy rainfall. Controversial among scholars, it proposes a date of 7000-5000 BCE. He suggests that the erosion is the result of water weathering rather than wind and sand erosion, as traditionally believed. This was a time when egypt was alot greener than it is now.🤔
