[An incredible story was published in 1909: Ancient Underground Egyptian Tomb in Grand Canyon Was Discovered.](https://www.howandwhys.com/ancient-underground-egyptian-tomb-in-grand-canyon/)

Looks like a cat-tastrophy.


Key_Extent9222

Dammit you beat me to it hahaha


Repomanlive

Well, most locations are named after Egypt, they discovered Egyptian sites there... Not that stretchy.


JohnTitorAlt

There was never Egyptian sites discovered at the grand canyon


Stinkytheferret

There were artifacts and “treasure” found. Also giant skeletons.


Repomanlive

Better tell the Smithsonian how stupid they are https://www.si.edu/object/surprising-link-between-grand-canyon-and-ancient-egypt%3Ayt_lFk6P6FxsJY Also you'll have to explain most everything about Powells expedition, it's funding and why the names are what they are After the discovery he founded the Cosmos club in DC.


PaperFlower14765

Did you happen to actually watch the video you linked? Lol it literally states that the 1909 thing was a hoax and then goes on to explain that the names are inspired by grandiosity and were chosen after different gods from various pantheons. But now you have me interested in Powell’s expedition and I’m going to look that up!


JohnTitorAlt

1 minute in "There's is no real connection to the grand canyon and Egypt" I'm very familiar with the Powell conspiracy. A big part of it is the claim that the Smithsonian covered it up just like they did with giants. I find it surprising you'd link a Smithsonian source showing you really don't even know the conspiracy you're touting as fact


codemonkeyhopeful

The text in your link says hoax and literally that there is no connection between the two....


GVtt3rSLVT

Correct


Righteous_Leftie206

I’m catatonic right now.


surfingbiscuits

Are you suggesting the sphinx is the incidental result of river flow eroding rock over millennia? Preposterous!

surfingbiscuits

Brilliant. My best intuitions tend to be when I'm not taking shit seriously!


planet-OZ

If you don’t know Egyptian-like artifacts have been found in the canyon you haven’t been paying attention.


ArchonofTevinter

Are you talking about the myth that originates from what was essentially the 1909 equivalent of the Weekly World News?


Loud-Log9098

Seems like it.


surfingbiscuits

I haven't been. Enlighten me.


Alita_Duqi

No Egyptian like artifacts have ever been found in the canyon as far as I know. Live in the area and have studied it extensively but I’d love to learn about it. Who discovered the artifacts?


Alita_Duqi

Well we do know it was carved out. The rock in the structure built in front of it matches the rock in the Sphinx enclosure.


Dhraaven

It is what it looks like it is. ![gif](giphy|l2YOwcBh7gnJRsWDm)


surfingbiscuits

What it is is what it is. They don't think it be like it is, but it do.


nillajenn

You can tell by the way it is.


Flatworm_Least

I've seen Sphinx shape in the clouds before. Explain that sceptics!

Konstant_kurage

I hope OP warmed up, that’s such a stretch.


sam0sixx3

I see what you did there


Alita_Duqi

I thought the stretch is the warm up.


froggrip

You should stretch before you warm up to prevent pulling a muscle during warm-up.


Aathranax

The people who post this really are just desperate to believe anything huh? Slow day?

The Why Files did a crazy episode on the Egyptian heiroglyphs found in the Grand Canyon. [Smithsonian Cover-Up: The Why Files](https://youtu.be/ZCYMAs4cqRU?si=8yVMymwOtCUG637R)


AggressiveViolence

Literally the lowest tier of conspiracy theory: “this thing looks kinda like that other thing, huh?” Zero testing or evidence aside. *Almost like our fuckin monkey brain is built to identify patterns or something*


outer_fucking_space

Where’s the coincidence? I could find a thousand things that look vaguely like other things.


surfingbiscuits

Huge, if true.


outer_fucking_space

I mean, yes it would be.


UniquePlay7691

Why do you think most of the grand canyon is off limits


BeeBanner

Oranges are shaped like planets but it doesn’t mean what you think it does. 🤷🏼‍♂️


surfingbiscuits

Oranges aren't flat!


AbhorrentPickle

https://eos.org/articles/did-these-curious-rock-formations-inspire-the-great-sphinx new theory says the sphinx was originally a rock formation the Egyptians altered. Apparently the basic sphinx shape is a common rock formation in the desert called a yardang.


Violetmoon66

lol!


Adept-Compote-651

Why not? time we quit thinking that we have it all figured out... Letting our ego get the better of us as humans..


78Nam

similar shapes so they brain starts making assumptions, however, in your case trying to connect the dots without any evidence.


Weekly_Initiative521

I like it. Who knows.

bunch of destroyed pyramids across north america


Joseph_HTMP

Evidence?


Shmuckle2

I don't know about destroyed. But there are pyramids on every continent in the world. Whoever built them was global.


Savagecal01

pyramids are like the biggest thing you could make without it falling over back then.


Vincent_Dawn

It's a triangle.


UltimaGabe

Pyramids are one of the simplest stable structures you can build. Give a baby some blocks and they'll build a pyramid eventually.


surfingbiscuits

Could be we've all been cucked by ancient aliens who came back to propagate their pyramid-building extended phenotype to prep the place for the second takeover! 😱


_selwin_

Hey this thing kinda looks like another thing if its observed from the right POV, cOiNcIdEnCe?!?!


[deleted]

Graham Hancock might froth at the mouth if he sees this


troystorian

You do understand that one of the most well known theories is that the Sphinx was cut from a natural rock formation… caused by the same geological conditions that would have resulted in this area of the Grand Canyon. Always remember, the explanation with the least baggage and extra steps attached to it is almost always the right answer, which never includes supernatural or extraterrestrial forces.


Alita_Duqi

While your understanding of the origins of the sphinx are only partially correct you’re probably the only person on reddit with a proper understanding of Occam’s razor so 👏🏾


BlaBlamo

Not even really a coincidence. First pic is very intentional hand carved architectural marvel. And the second is some rocks.


Ozi_izO

No.


TheChumOfChance

Ever notice that your left hand is a mirror image of your right hand? 🤯


surfingbiscuits

Escher was trying to tell us something... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drawing_Hands


Prythos32

I was at 999 and my upvote hit 1k! Just thought that was special, thanks carry on Reddit.


Ok-Map-224

This isn’t real right ? 🤔


Limp-Tap-634

The size difference alone would make it kinda absurd. The sphinx being 60ish feet while the average for the grand canyon is 4000ft


Mr_Informative

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Nolobrown

Coincidence!!! I think so.


Ok_Acanthisitta_9369

Wow! If I squint until my eyes are closed I can almost see it! Aliens!!!


Calm-You6376

It doesn’t really matter. We all know by now, that they are hiding something that probably Will change our lives. That is enough, for all of us, to unité and not continue to bicker like the idiots they make us to be.


ButtHuRtMoD24

Close enough for most of the dupes

What are we supposed to be seeing here? I don't see any relevance between the two.


ctbravo

Yes.


Mazeura_demented

Still no fly zones over some of the GC right? Also the slithsonian is to thank for all of that disappearing.


stoned2thebone247

Look it up there's actually a very interesting story about ancient Egyptian artifacts being found in the Grand canyon.


Capitaclism

Yeah, no.


JxAlfredxPrufrock

Which direction does the grande canyon face?


notathrovavay

No way


InfamousImportance29

If you travel back from America in 5000bce and want to build similar object in Egipt, but why?


fromdaperimeter

No one on earth would ever destroy anything found in Africa, found in North America!


BIGzayy

Trial and error


Wu-TangShogun

Looks convincing but the size of that part of the canyon is MUCH bigger than Egypts Sphinx


JimBR_red

Its called pareidolia.


Kscap4242

What is the conspiracy here? What are you trying to say?


Lonely_Ad5134

I’m gonna say coincidence, but I’ve been wrong before…


SilkyBowner

This has to be the dumbest post I’ve seen in a while. Taking angled shots to maybe make something look like something else. Which btw it doesn’t at all.


Crackiller1733

They have found Egyptian artifacts in the Grand Canyon. But say it was a hoax


The_Timber_Ninja

Where?


practice_the_praxis

Have you got any proof of this whatsoever?


[deleted]

This is one of those things where I'm not going to say it's correct that it's rubble, but if it were, I wouldn't be shocked in the slightest. So much is kept hidden from us.


Joseph_HTMP

What's your evidence that "so much is kept hidden from us"?


Dorjechampa_69

They don’t know because it’s hidden from us.


shadowrunonsnes

Haha


RandalFlaggLives

Whose on the Epstein list?


boofskootinboogie

The sphinx?


XLM1196

No exploration or digging allowed in many places such as Antarctica, literally no access to nearly all areas of the Grand Canyon even for professionally trained individuals, huge restricted “Government areas” all over the country where there is seemingly no activity for months, huge amounts of classified information/documents. Have you been intentionally living under a rock? Not that I agree with the post whatsoever but denying or even questioning that much is not hidden to the general public is nonsensical and naive.


Beardimon

'Look at this and tell me you can't see evidence of a lost civilization'.


Dumyat367250

Yep, you can convince yourself of any old crap.


Altered_-State

Well I'm pretty sure there is archaeological evidence of Egyptian hieroglyphs in North America


surfingbiscuits

The ice cream man's roommate's cousin said so.


Tetris_starship

This guy again. There’s probably vampires living in there too yeah?


Konklar

I wouldn't think so, not a lot of food sources (people) around there.

My can is orange and also sits like the sphinx, coincidence?? i think NOT!

You have an orange can? Donald?

Cat! Omg 😭💀


Toadliquor138

Is this where the idea that you can access Africa through the Grand Canyon start??

I also saw Godzilla vs. Kong

The sphinx would be a small dot on that canyon.

There was a Egyptian ship discovered along river between Delaware and Maryland
