King Khafre Statue, a Wonder of the World | Sphinx Temple Complex | CMI Egypt Tour.

Keep in mind everything here being covered with sand till the level of the neck of the Sphinx. When they decided to make excavation around the Sphinx, they discovered the temple. When they decided to make excavation inside the temple, they discovered a statue hidden down there. Statue for whom? The owner of the second pyramid and the owner of the face of the complex, King Khafra, the owner of the second pyramid. Why he made the statue then hide it under the ground? By the way, that statue made out of a very special kind of stone called Dirite. Dirite, very hard of the stone to carve. Like let's say, it becomes in the level after diamond. That's why you cannot carve that stone unless you have tools made out of diamond. That's why most of the failures, most of the workers keep from this kind of stone because very hard of the stone to carve. But King Khafra was strong, wise, smart, and very rich. That's why he worried if there are some other Pharaohs looking for it, try to put their names on it, get it for themselves. That's why he gave an order, if something happens to him, workers will hide the statue under the ground. So, okay. When they make the excavation, they discover a statue which is right now in the old Egyptian museum in the first floor. That's why you cannot carve that stone unless you have tools made out of diamond. Even later, lasers itself gave up and couldn't give the same details. That's why that statue don't have a replica of it. Even we cannot do a replica of it. That's why I believe it has to be one of the seven wonders. Lower behind, you have to find the falcon image of the tail of the bird. It's printed on the thin Egyptian found.
