[ Man Narrating ]
Its origins are unknown.
2
00:00:06,841 --> 00:00:11,763
The degree of erosion that we see
has to go back to 10,000 BC.

00:00:12,597 --> 00:00:16,434
[ Narrator] Its secrets have remained
hidden for thousands of years.

00:00:17,143 --> 00:00:22,607
It was reported that they found passages
into these hidden chambers.
5
00:00:23,775 --> 00:00:28,363
[ Narrator] And it may hold the truth
behind our very existence.

00:00:28,446 --> 00:00:33,368
It reads, “I have under me
the knowledge of our genesis.”

The Great Sphinx of Giza...
8
00:00:39,207 --> 00:00:41,459
is perhaps the most mysterious
monument on Earth.

00:00:41,543 --> 00:00:42,710
[ Beeping ]
10
00:00:42,794 --> 00:00:45,380
But once its riddle is solved...
11
00:00:45,463 --> 00:00:47,423
will we find the ultimate proof...
12
00:00:47,507 --> 00:00:51,719
that our ancestors were visited
by alien beings?
13
00:00:51,803 --> 00:00:57,058
[ Man ] What's staring us in the face
goes back to when extraterrestrials...
14
00:00:57,141 --> 00:01:00,478
walked the earth with human beings.
15
00:01:01,437 --> 00:01:04,190
[ Narrator] Millions of people
around the world believe...
16
00:01:04,274 --> 00:01:08,236
we have been visited in the past
by extraterrestrial beings.
17
00:01:08,903 --> 00:01:11,739
What if it were true?
18
00:01:11,823 --> 00:01:15,910
Did ancient aliens really help
to shape our history?
19
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:23,084
And if so, might the proof lie hidden
with the mysteries of the Sphinx?

[ Narrator] The Giza Plateau.
22
00:01:57,368 --> 00:02:01,289
Egypt, 1925.
23
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,292
Rising out of the desert sand...
24
00:02:04,375 --> 00:02:07,503
is a giant stone statue
of a human head.
25
00:02:08,713 --> 00:02:11,716
For centuries, most visitors to the area...
26
00:02:11,799 --> 00:02:14,135
believed this was all that existed.
27
00:02:15,136 --> 00:02:17,847
But French engineer Emile Baraize...
28
00:02:17,930 --> 00:02:21,267
is convinced that much more
lies beneath the surface...
29
00:02:21,351 --> 00:02:23,978
than even archaeologists are aware of.
30
00:02:26,314 --> 00:02:29,150
He begins an excavation
to uncover it...
31
00:02:29,233 --> 00:02:32,028
and after 11 years of extensive digging...
32
00:02:32,111 --> 00:02:36,324
Baraize unearths a massive body
resembling a lion...
33
00:02:36,407 --> 00:02:38,368
and reintroduces the world...
34
00:02:38,451 --> 00:02:42,246
to the full splendor
of the Great Sphinx.
35
00:02:45,833 --> 00:02:49,545
It is the largest monolithic sculpture
on Earth.
36
00:02:51,422 --> 00:02:55,718
It must have been quite eerie
to be there back then...
37
00:02:55,802 --> 00:02:58,846
not knowing a lot about
the ancient Egyptian history...
38
00:03:00,139 --> 00:03:04,811
and having this huge structure
staring down at you.
39
00:03:09,649 --> 00:03:12,694
[ Narrator]
Facing east toward the rising sun...
40
00:03:12,777 --> 00:03:15,488
the Great Sphinx
is located nearly half a mile...
41
00:03:15,571 --> 00:03:18,199
from Egypt's three largest pyramids.
42
00:03:19,283 --> 00:03:22,995
It is carved from a single piece
of limestone bedrock...
43
00:03:23,079 --> 00:03:28,084
and stands over 60 feet tall
and 240 feet long.
44
00:03:30,336 --> 00:03:33,589
People have asked themselves
for centuries...
45
00:03:33,673 --> 00:03:36,342
“What was the sphinx for?
46
00:03:36,426 --> 00:03:38,344
Why was it built?
47
00:03:38,428 --> 00:03:42,974
There is a story behind it,
but what is the story?”
48
00:03:46,936 --> 00:03:48,563
[ Narrator]
The Sphinx is arguably...
49
00:03:48,646 --> 00:03:51,858
one of the most studied monuments
in the world...
50
00:03:53,025 --> 00:03:56,028
yet it remains
one of the most mysterious.
51
00:03:58,489 --> 00:04:00,742
There are no inscriptions
on the Sphinx...
52
00:04:00,825 --> 00:04:03,327
to indicate who built it or why...
53
00:04:04,245 --> 00:04:08,583
but most Egyptologists
date it to 2,500 BC...
54
00:04:11,753 --> 00:04:13,880
the time of the Pharaoh Khafre...
55
00:04:13,963 --> 00:04:16,966
or Chephren,
as he is known by Greek scholars.
56
00:04:17,842 --> 00:04:20,261
The dating is based
on a mention of Khafre. ..
57
00:04:20,344 --> 00:04:23,514
On a tablet found
between the paws of the Sphinx.
58
00:04:24,515 --> 00:04:27,435
But this tablet,
known as the Dream Stela...
59
00:04:27,518 --> 00:04:32,106
also tells the story of a pharaoh
who came 1,000 years later-
60
00:04:32,190 --> 00:04:34,692
King Thutmose IV.
61
00:04:36,444 --> 00:04:38,946
[ Romany] King Thutmose IV
comes in a new kingdom...
62
00:04:39,030 --> 00:04:42,492
which we believe is more
than a thousand years...
63
00:04:42,575 --> 00:04:45,870
after the time the Sphinx was sculpted.
64
00:04:45,953 --> 00:04:49,415
He made this stela to tell his story.
65
00:04:50,416 --> 00:04:52,835
King Thutmose IV,
before becoming a king...
66
00:04:52,919 --> 00:04:56,380
was on an expedition here in Giza.
67
00:04:57,298 --> 00:04:59,884
And he slept right next to the Sphinx.
68
00:05:00,885 --> 00:05:05,056
And back then, the Sphinx was covered
in sand all the way up to its head.
69
00:05:06,808 --> 00:05:09,644
And in his dream,
the Sphinx came to him.
70
00:05:09,727 --> 00:05:12,021
[ Man ]
The Sphinx spoke to him and said...
71
00:05:12,104 --> 00:05:15,817
that if he would uncover the Sphinx
from the burial in the sand...
72
00:05:15,900 --> 00:05:18,277
he would then end up as pharaoh.
73
00:05:18,361 --> 00:05:22,865
Now, he was the son of a pharaoh,
but was not the heir.
74
00:05:22,949 --> 00:05:26,744
Thutmose IV ended up
with that throne after this dream.
75
00:05:26,828 --> 00:05:30,748
The Sphinx itself speaks
to a future pharaoh...
76
00:05:30,832 --> 00:05:35,086
and the history of ancient Egypt
is altered by this fact.
77
00:05:37,171 --> 00:05:40,716
The Sphinx told King Thutmose IV
in his sleep...
78
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,301
right here in that line...
79
00:05:42,385 --> 00:05:46,347
that everything that
the eye of the lord illuminates...
80
00:05:47,390 --> 00:05:48,850
will be his.
81
00:05:48,933 --> 00:05:51,435
He cleared all the sand
surrounding the Sphinx...
82
00:05:51,519 --> 00:05:54,480
and Thutmose IV then became the king.
83
00:05:54,564 --> 00:05:56,899
So the Sphinx kept its promise.
84
00:05:58,693 --> 00:06:00,570
[ Man ]
Now, the amazing thing about this...
85
00:06:00,653 --> 00:06:05,700
is that we learn of what's called
“the flashing eye of the lord.”
86
00:06:05,783 --> 00:06:07,910
What is the flashing eye of the lord?
87
00:06:07,994 --> 00:06:10,121
This sounds like
some kind of technology...
88
00:06:10,204 --> 00:06:15,001
that is in communication with the Sphinx
or perhaps channeled by the Sphinx...
89
00:06:15,084 --> 00:06:18,045
that could ensure the prosperity
of Thutmose IV.
90
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,925
[ Narrator]
If the story on the Dream Stela is true...
91
00:06:23,009 --> 00:06:27,471
the Sphinx not only ensured
the prosperity of Thutmose IV...
92
00:06:27,555 --> 00:06:31,017
but of perhaps
the most important dynastic family...
93
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:34,353
in the history of the Egyptian empire.
94
00:06:34,437 --> 00:06:40,192
Thutmose IV was actually
the grandfather of Akhenaton.
95
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,739
[ Narrator] Akhenaton
was considered a heretical pharaoh.
96
00:06:44,822 --> 00:06:48,034
He changed the polytheistic religion
of ancient Egypt...
97
00:06:48,117 --> 00:06:52,079
and declared there was only one god-
Aton,
98
00:06:52,163 --> 00:06:55,833
a god he depicted as a disk in the sky.
99
00:06:56,334 --> 00:07:00,212
Akhenaton became enthralled
with the Aton disk.
100
00:07:00,296 --> 00:07:03,966
Is it possible that the eye of the lord
and the Aton disk...
101
00:07:04,050 --> 00:07:06,969
are one and the same,
and that they are, in fact...
102
00:07:07,053 --> 00:07:12,433
some kind of UFO spaceship
that's hovering over Egypt...
103
00:07:12,516 --> 00:07:14,393
as an eye in the sky...
104
00:07:14,477 --> 00:07:18,022
and is guiding the Egyptian civilization?
105
00:07:20,650 --> 00:07:23,736
[ Narrator] Could it be
that the eye of the lord and the Aton...
106
00:07:23,819 --> 00:07:26,822
are describing the same object?
107
00:07:26,906 --> 00:07:30,284
And if so, was Egyptian civilization...
108
00:07:30,368 --> 00:07:32,745
being guided by extraterrestrials...
109
00:07:32,828 --> 00:07:35,957
that used the Sphinx
as a means of communication?
110
00:07:37,875 --> 00:07:40,044
Might the Dream Stela be proof...
111
00:07:40,127 --> 00:07:42,630
that this mysterious monolithic statue...
112
00:07:42,713 --> 00:07:45,549
was built long before
the Pharaoh Khafre?
113
00:07:46,133 --> 00:07:49,011
Ancient astronaut theorists say yes...
114
00:07:49,095 --> 00:07:53,224
and point to yet another line
of the Dream Stela as proof.
115
00:07:56,894 --> 00:07:59,039
[ Man ] There's something else
written on the Sphinx...
116
00:07:59,063 --> 00:08:01,482
that was ignored by Egyptologists.
117
00:08:02,650 --> 00:08:08,030
The Sphinx actually says,
“I have been here since the first time.”
118
00:08:10,032 --> 00:08:14,578
Now, the word in ancient Egyptian
for “first time” is Zep Tepi.
119
00:08:15,579 --> 00:08:18,749
And what he meant by this
is the time when Osiris...
120
00:08:18,833 --> 00:08:22,336
had come at the beginning
of the civilization.
121
00:08:24,755 --> 00:08:28,467
The Egyptians talk about a golden age-
122
00:08:28,551 --> 00:08:34,974
a golden age that existed
12,500 or so years ago.
123
00:08:35,057 --> 00:08:38,936
This is something that goes back
at least 8,000 years...
124
00:08:39,020 --> 00:08:42,523
before the current
accepted chronology of Egypt.
125
00:08:45,109 --> 00:08:51,615
At that time,
the gods mingled or walked with men.
126
00:08:54,827 --> 00:08:56,829
[ Narrator]
Could this extraordinary monument...
127
00:08:56,912 --> 00:08:58,956
be a remnant from a golden age...
128
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,126
when extraterrestrials
coexisted with humans...
129
00:09:02,209 --> 00:09:04,962
as ancient astronaut theorists suggest?
130
00:09:06,505 --> 00:09:10,468
If so, does the Sphinx
date back thousands of years...
131
00:09:10,551 --> 00:09:14,221
before conventional scholars
believe possible?
132
00:09:15,222 --> 00:09:17,808
Perhaps further clues of its true age...
133
00:09:17,892 --> 00:09:22,021
can be found in the geological record
of the Giza Plateau.
134
00:09:27,818 --> 00:09:29,653
Boston, Massachusetts.
135
00:09:30,905 --> 00:09:33,240
Geologist Dr. Robert SCHOCH...
136
00:09:33,324 --> 00:09:38,245
has studied the geological features
of the Sphinx for over 20 years.
137
00:09:38,329 --> 00:09:41,832
I looked specifically
at the weathering and erosion...
138
00:09:41,916 --> 00:09:45,377
on the body of the Sphinx,
on the walls of the Sphinx enclosure.
139
00:09:45,461 --> 00:09:47,922
I saw weathering patterns
that were not compatible...
140
00:09:48,005 --> 00:09:51,842
with the Sahara conditions
of the last 5,000 years.
141
00:09:53,177 --> 00:09:58,099
Here we have a photograph
of the Sphinx on the left side.
142
00:09:58,182 --> 00:10:02,103
This is the rump of the Sphinx.
This is the wall of the Sphinx enclosure.
143
00:10:02,186 --> 00:10:05,189
When you look at this,
these are the lines of rock...
144
00:10:05,272 --> 00:10:07,942
or the strata, as we say, geologically.
145
00:10:08,025 --> 00:10:12,446
You can see how they've been weathered out,
sort of a rounded, rolling profile.
146
00:10:12,530 --> 00:10:16,909
This is caused by rain beating down
and running over the rock.
147
00:10:16,992 --> 00:10:20,788
And this was very evident to me
as a geologist.
148
00:10:25,376 --> 00:10:27,628
[ Narrator]
According to archaeologists...
149
00:10:27,711 --> 00:10:30,131
significant rainfall in the Giza Plateau...
150
00:10:30,214 --> 00:10:33,801
would date back to before 3,000 BC...
151
00:10:33,884 --> 00:10:39,223
at least 500 years before the time
attributed to the building of the Sphinx.
152
00:10:41,100 --> 00:10:45,354
[SCHOCH ] The degree and level of erosion
that we see on the Great Sphinx...
153
00:10:45,437 --> 00:10:48,941
has to go back
to that earlier climatic period...
154
00:10:49,024 --> 00:10:50,818
and not just a few hundred years-
155
00:10:50,901 --> 00:10:53,487
thousands of years before Sahara times.
156
00:10:53,571 --> 00:10:57,491
This put us back to at least 5,000,
maybe 7,000, 8,000-
157
00:10:57,575 --> 00:11:00,452
I now suspect even 10,000 BC.
158
00:11:02,079 --> 00:11:04,498
[ TSOUKALOS ]
if we are to subscribe to the idea...
159
00:11:04,582 --> 00:11:09,420
that the Sphinx displays markings
of water erosion...
160
00:11:10,504 --> 00:11:12,339
then that means...
161
00:11:12,423 --> 00:11:14,550
that what's staring us in the face...
162
00:11:14,633 --> 00:11:17,178
is much, much older...
163
00:11:17,261 --> 00:11:20,723
than what mainstream science proposes.
164
00:11:23,726 --> 00:11:25,519
[ Narrator]
Is the Sphinx really older...
165
00:11:25,603 --> 00:11:28,647
than our history books
have led us to believe?
166
00:11:29,398 --> 00:11:35,112
If so, who or what was responsible
for its construction?
167
00:11:35,196 --> 00:11:37,531
Perhaps further clues can be found...
168
00:11:37,615 --> 00:11:40,326
by examining the face of the Sphinx...

on the Sphinx belongs to...

Most scholars attribute the face
to Khafre...

the pharaoh they propose
built the Sphinx.

that the Sphinx was not built by Khafre,
as mainstream historians suggest.
200
00:13:48,329 --> 00:13:52,750
They say that the Sphinx predates
the age of the pharaohs...
201

and propose that the true head
of the Sphinx...

has not been seen
for thousands of years.
203

Many people have suggested,
including scholars...
204
00:14:03,927 --> 00:14:07,765
that the current head
that's on that massive body...
205
00:14:10,434 --> 00:14:15,856
is way too small
for it to be proportional to the body...
206
00:14:16,607 --> 00:14:20,778
because it was reshaped,
recarved at a later date.
207
00:14:20,861 --> 00:14:25,032
If you think about that for a moment,
that's highly fascinating...
208
00:14:25,115 --> 00:14:30,329
because what did that thing look like
in its original form?
209
00:14:32,081 --> 00:14:34,375
It has been suggested
that perhaps, originally...
210
00:14:34,458 --> 00:14:37,169
it was the face of a lion,
or the head of a lion.
211
00:14:38,253 --> 00:14:40,940
[COPPENS] I think there is an argument
that the head of the Sphinx...
212
00:14:40,964 --> 00:14:43,300
was a full lion's head.
213
00:14:44,176 --> 00:14:46,428
And I think that there is power
to the theory...
214
00:14:46,512 --> 00:14:50,307
that the Sphinx actually represented
the constellation of Leo.
215
00:14:55,145 --> 00:14:57,314
[ Narrator]
Curiously, there's no reference...
216

to a statue of a Great Sphinx,
or even a great lion...
217
00:15:01,026 --> 00:15:03,529
in any old kingdom texts.
218
00:15:04,321 --> 00:15:07,574
But one scholar who has
extensively studied the monument...
219
00:15:07,658 --> 00:15:10,327
proposes that this is due to the fact...
220
00:15:10,411 --> 00:15:13,497
that it was originally
something entirely different.
221
00:15:14,581 --> 00:15:18,168
When I saw the body, I instantly
thought, “That's no lion's body.”
222
00:15:20,629 --> 00:15:23,048
Now, if you study a lion...
223
00:15:23,132 --> 00:15:25,342
it has great big shoulders...
224
00:15:26,844 --> 00:15:29,430
it has a sloping back.
225
00:15:29,513 --> 00:15:32,224
And so you do not have
a straight back for a lion.
226
00:15:33,142 --> 00:15:35,477
It couldn't be more obvious
that this is a dog's body.
227
00:15:35,561 --> 00:15:39,231
That's exactly how they crouch
when they're in a guarding position.

And there's only one dog it could be.
That has to be Anubis.

the whole time.

The easiest thing to do
when trying to destroy the Sphinx...
238
00:16:12,181 --> 00:16:15,601
is to knock pointy ears
and a pointy nose off...
239
00:16:15,684 --> 00:16:17,352

240
00:16:18,437 --> 00:16:20,856
So this is the remaining stump...

from which they could fashion
a human head.

of ancient Egyptian myth...

and dwelled in the star system Orion...

the angle that the stars
make in the sky...

508
00:33:53,783 --> 00:33:56,536
And you have to wonder
if this Martian sphinx...
509
00:33:57,203 --> 00:33:59,997
isn't created by extraterrestrials.
510
00:34:01,207 --> 00:34:05,002
Some have proposed
that there is a mirror image...

00:34:05,086 --> 00:34:08,047
of the Giza Plateau on Mars...
512
00:34:08,130 --> 00:34:12,051
and therefore,
Mars might have been inhabited.
513
00:34:12,134 --> 00:34:15,805
And this is why we allegedly
have structures on Mars...
514
00:34:15,888 --> 00:34:18,516
that are of artificial origin.

[ Narrator] The idea
of extraterrestrial life inhabiting Mars...
516
00:34:25,565 --> 00:34:28,192
has long fascinated mankind.
517
00:34:29,443 --> 00:34:33,239
In 1895, astronomer Percival Lowell...
518
00:34:33,322 --> 00:34:37,118
proposed an ancient civilization
built canals on Mars...
519
00:34:37,201 --> 00:34:41,831
to bring water from the poles
to keep their society alive.
520
00:34:41,914 --> 00:34:47,211
And since the first landing
on the surface of Mars in 1976...
521
00:34:47,295 --> 00:34:51,048
NASA Mars missions
have focused almost exclusively...
522
00:34:51,132 --> 00:34:54,927
on determining if life
could exist on the red planet.
523
00:34:55,845 --> 00:34:59,599
We've found no real hard evidence of life.
524

And yet there's
this tantalizing possibility...

where we haven't given up.
526
00:35:06,522 --> 00:35:10,318
We would be looking for
a subterranean civilization...
527
00:35:10,401 --> 00:35:13,237
because surface conditions
are just so harsh.

Conceivably, you could have
whole complex ecosystems...

and find civilization there...

And you have to wonder
if this Martian sphinx...

isn't guarding
some underground world on Mars...
535
00:35:35,343 --> 00:35:40,681
similar to the underground world at Giza
that we know exists today.

[ Narrator]
Do the formations on Mars...
537
00:35:46,854 --> 00:35:50,566
provide evidence that the planet
was once inhabited?
538
00:35:50,650 --> 00:35:54,153
And if so, does this sphinx on Mars...

also serve as a marker of an entrance
to an underground world...

and perhaps the true location
of a secret' hall of records?

According to some
ancient astronaut theorists...

00:36:09,543 --> 00:36:13,172
if this Sphinx in Giza
truly has a counterpart' on Mars...
543
00:36:14,048 --> 00:36:16,217
it would match up
with what has been found...

[ Man ] A famous linguist
by the name of Zecharia Sitchin...

traversing between Mars and Earth...

of what we have in Giza...
553

and what we also have on Mars.

Every scientist agrees today...
555
00:36:53,421 --> 00:36:56,799
that Mars,
at some point in time in the past...
556
00:36:58,342 --> 00:37:02,012
had an atmosphere
not very unlike Earth's.
557

And so if one were
to propose the idea...

force the unearthing...

of something more profound-

there's always two colossal statues.

the new kingdom stela
between the paws of the Sphinx...
586

but two sphinxes.

It was completely covered in sand.

that maybe there are other structures...

is protected by one sphinx in the east,
which is the existing Sphinx.

in the back.
