Great Sphinx Of Giza photo copyrighted by: Galen R. Frysinger The Great Sphinx at Giza started as a natural outcropping of rock. The sphinx also had an element of Horus, the falcon-headed god of the kings: as is clear from contemporary heads of Khafre, Horus perched behind the king's head, spreading his wings protectively.
