Great Sphinx Of Egypt photo copyrighted by: Galen R. Frysinger The Western name "Sphinx" was given to it in antiquity based on the legendary Greek creature with the body of a lion and the head of a woman, though Egyptian sphinxes have the head of a man. The Great Sphinx was a carving with, as far as is known, no precedent.
