About This Item

Almost in denial at Giza

In Ancient Egypt generally the role of sphinxes was as temple guardians; they were placed in association with architectural structures such as royal tombs or religious temples. The largest and most famous sphinx, the one depicted on this coin, is the Great Sphinx of Giza. It is of a reclining lion with a human head and stands on the Giza Plateau on the west bank of the Nile, near modern-day Cairo, in Egypt. Although the date of its construction is uncertain, the head is now believed to be that of the pharaoh Khafra, an Egyptian pharaoh of the Fourth dynasty.

A good starting point for this coin's journey. There's much to be guarded here... the nearby Castle, the Roman Pharos, the network of defence tunnels in the White Cliffs, the town itself and the ferry port. It's also Mrs P's home town.
