So as I go along, I'll be repeating many of my contentions, but showing you more and more evidence. Bear with me. This is by far the easiest way to bring you along. Right now, I'm going to expand my base of contentions by quickly outlining the essentials my theory.

Author's Note

Of course we have no way of knowing if such an individual  existed as the preliterate hunter/gatherer period was one that  left  few clues. We are basic ally left  to our own resources. At  one end of a dark tunnel we have the face of the Sphinx, which is almost  surely preliterate. What  we don't  know is whose face it  is. on t he Sphinx

We can, however, work backwards from the characteristics of the carved face and what  we know of preliterate cultures and other large, carved preliterate faces to approximate the nature of the person represented by the carving. Others might  come up with a much different  deduction than I have,  so we would then have to see which deduction holds the most  water. I stand ready to have such a comparison set up and judged, as I believe my own deduction, which will be expanded as the site proceeds, to be very close to the truth as to the nature of  the person represented.

There you have it: a simple, straightforward theory that makes enormous sense  if we look  at the Sphinx with the right eyes, preliterate eyes.
