Description

In their book, Robert Bauvel and Graham Hancock demonstrate an unprecedented result of historical and scientific investigation, which included a sophisticated computer simulation of an ancient starry sky in order to decipher a code of millennia that contains a monumental message… The guardian of ancient secrets, keeper of existence… For thousands of years the Great Sphinx has been looking to the east; its eyes read the eternity of star messages long forgotten by humanity. And today, as our civilization approaches the end of a great cycle, these messages urgently demand to be decoded… Geology and archaeoastronomy have shown that the Sphinx—with the body of a lion—is apparently far older than Egyptologists believe. As far back as the 19th century, this great monument was buried in sand up to its neck. Its body was not subject to weathering at that time, but, as it turned out, it suffered heavily from erosion. Could this erosion have been caused by something other than wind? Long ago, while the Sphinx was “alive,” were there heavy rains in the desert? What is in the rectangular chamber that seismic surveys have detected deep in the rocky ground beneath the Sphinx’s paws? What is hidden behind the mysterious small door recently found at the end of a previously unexplored shaft deep inside the Great Pyramid? Now we also know that the three pyramids in Giza are not pharaohs’ tombs, as was previously thought. They form an exact map where the three stars of Orion’s Belt are embodied in 15 million tons of stone. Are we witnessing humanity’s encounter with fate— not in the future, but in the distant past, in a specific place and at a specific time? So what is the Sphinx trying to tell us?..
