The largest and most famous is the Great Sphinx of Giza, sited on the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile River, facing due east ( 29°58′31″N, 31°08′15″E), with a small temple between its paws. The face of the Great Sphinx is believed to be the head of the pharaoh Khafra (often known by the Greek version of his name, Chephren) or possibly that of his son, the Pharaoh Djedefra, which would date its construction from the fourth dynasty (2723 BC–2563 BC).
Underneath it? Nothing but sand.

The sphinxes of Egypt are mythical creatures, seen as guardians in the Egyptian statuary. Sphinxes are depicted in one of these three forms:
Androsphinx - body of lion with head of person;
Criosphinx - body of lion with head of ram;
Hierocosphinx - body of lion with head of falcon or hawk
underneath it is very old sand .
