Egypt prepares a formal unveiling of a renewed Sphinx with a 10 year effort using 12,244 white limestone blocks to repair worn chest and body, restoring nearly 2,400 feet of the monument while weighing in on its mystery and awe.
Egyptian archaeologists led by Zahi Hawass discuss the Sphinx's chephren era carvings and dream stela of Tutmosis IV. They note Roman era restorations, 1920s rebuilds, and recent white limestone blocks. Tourists like Peter Longfield critique the modern contrasts with ancient wear.
Cheops, the largest pyramid at Giza, will be shut from April 1 for eight months to fix cracks, clean graffiti, and remove humidity from heavy visitor use. With French aid, a new vent system will be installed. Mansionary Hawass hints at permanent closure to public entry for preservation.
