Sphinx of Memphis

The Sphinx of Memphis is a stone sphinx located near the remains of Memphis, Egypt. The carving was believed to take place between 1700 and 1400 BC, which was during the 18th dynasty.〔"Alabaster Sphinx." InterCity Oz, Inc - Interoz.com - Web Publishers, Marketers and Designer - Where the Web Leads. 1996. Web. 18 February 2011. .〕 It is unknown which pharaoh is being honored and there are no inscriptions to supply information. The facial features imply that the Sphinx is honoring Hatshepsut or Amenhotep II or Amenhotep III.〔
==Discovery==
The Alabaster Sphinx was discovered in 1912 when an affiliate from the British School in Egypt spotted a uniquely carved object jutting out of a sand hill. It was so far in the season that excavation was useless, but a year later in 1913 digging further displayed that the object was the Sphinx's tail.〔"The American Antiquarian and ..." Google Books. Ed. Stephen Denison Peet, J. O. Kinnaman. Web. 4 March 2011. .〕
