"The Sphinx and the Megaliths" by John Ivimy examines the origins and purpose of Stonehenge, arguing against the prevailing view that it was built by Stone Age barbarians for religious rituals. The book explores the link between the Sphinx, megaliths, and ancient Egyptian geometry, suggesting a connection between these seemingly disparate sites. It delves into the pharaohs, the riddle of the Sphinx, and archaeological inferences, arguing that these elements provide insights into the founding of Stonehenge and its potential purpose. the book offers a comprehensive attempt to resolve the apparent conflict between the significant building events of Stonehenge and the Sphinx incorporating both scientific evidence and mythological narratives to explore the mysteries surrounding these structures.
