Appears in 4 conspiracy theories
Suppressed Ancient Civilizations
Gobekli Tepe is 11,600 years old. The Sphinx may show water erosion. Graham Hancock says an advanced civilization preceded ours. Mainstream archaeology says no. Who's right?
Graham Hancock — Lost Advanced Civilization Theory
Graham Hancock argues a globally connected advanced civilization existed before 12,800 BCE — destroyed by a comet impact (Younger Dryas event) — with survivors seeding later civilizations.
Sphinx Water Erosion --- Older Civilization Theory
Geologist Robert Schoch argues the Great Sphinx shows water erosion patterns consistent with rainfall only available in Egypt before 7000-10500 BCE, suggesting a much older lost civilization built it.
Egyptian Hall of Records — Suppressed Discovery
Edgar Cayce prophesied a Hall of Records beneath the Sphinx's paw containing knowledge from Atlantis. Seismic surveys and ground-penetrating radar have detected anomalous cavities, but Egypt refuses excavation.
