The biggest sculpture in the world, Egypt’s most recognizable monument, and arguably the best-known example of sphinx art, the immortal mystery surrounding the enigmatic Sphinx is the loss of its nose. It was clearly missing, but it would have been over three feet (1.2 m) wide. Regardless of this, everyone acknowledges that it is an excellent work that was, for centuries.
The function of this valley temple has been debated since it might have been used for mummification or the “opening of the mouth” a ritual in which the “ka” entered the dead person’s body.
In comparison to the succeeding temples of the Fifth and Sixth Dynasties, which are more elaborately decorated, Khafre’s Temple is quite unique and of simpler design.
