Yes.

It was built as a library by Edgar Cayce in his first incarnation as Ra Ta the great Whiteman who taught the backwards brown people of Egypt how to be civilized....

You mistake me sir for my corporeal friend Rupert. Yes, he dirtied his hands on that one. He was responsible for the mix up regarding the papyrus that was used in the Library for copying documents. He ordered, instead of 'premium library quality', by 'mistake' he requisitioned flammable papyrus, advertised as 'suitable for today's arsonist' with troubling long term results.

No. It only looks older.

Not enough exercise and a wrong diet can age you fast.

You forgot a rain. A rain makes a wrinkles. That's why the Sphynx looks older.

Does this really look old to you?

Ditto

You want old here is a image of Harte from two decades ago when he was trying to remember where the bathroom was

You're Italian, right?

I figured that out by the way you add articles to nouns where non of the Angry Saxons add articles to nouns.

Ok, this has nothing to do with the topic. I was just being curious.

That would make anyone look old.

KHUFU KNEW THE SPHINX

Quote

In 1992, a Boston University Professor of Geology, Robert M. Schoch, published a paper which concluded that the Great Sphinx of Giza was carved at a time between 5000 and 7000 BC
1
. This conclusion was reached following a study of the degradation of the body of the Sphinx and adjacent exposures. Schoch stated that the ".....rolling and undulating vertical profile to the weathered rocks ....."
 
was attributable to "...precipitation-induced weathering"

 

Quote

Schoch is best known for his fringe argument that the Great Sphinx of Giza is much older than conventionally thought and that some kind of catastrophe was responsible for wiping out evidence of a significantly older, unknown civilization. In 1991, Schoch redated the monument to 10,000–5,000 BC, based on water erosion marks he identified on the Sphinx enclosure walls, and also based on findings from seismic studies around the base of the Sphinx and elsewhere on the plateau.

Robert Schoch

 

[Harte]

While Reader is correct that Schoch made such statements, he mischaracterizes Schoch's reasoning concerning his date of 5000-7000 BC.

Schoch's estimated date was not arrived at through examining degradation of anything. That was what led Schoch to investigate, but his date is entirely based on subsurface weathering of the bedrock under the sphinx enclosure, which was caused by exposure to air, not water or wind or any such force.

Schoch's study involved weathering, not erosion.

Reader takes the angle he does because he is investigating erosion. It's unfortunate really, because Reader is partially responsible for all the shallow thinkers believing that Schoch's date is based on rain, when it has absolutely nothing to do with precipitation of any kind.

According to Jack West jnr, it is older. It’s one of the storehouses of the four great kingdoms.

Interesting. But he made a lot of a devices here out of the cement. Which of course had not yet been invented at the time of Stonrhenge. So in my opinion, this of his is not valid.

I recall one ancient tecnology doco recreated a segment of stonehenge by using ramps and an a-frame to place a lintel.

The Devil's Bible is a massive medieval tome, written in the 13th century by a monk who was said to have made a deal with the Devil in order to finish it. According to legend, the monk had been sentenced to be walled-up alive as punishment for breaking his vows.
