Geometric grid system and solstice alignments at Giza Plateau. Mark Norden) research shows the Great Sphinx and Second Pyramid create the 'horizon' (arket) symbol aligned to summer solstice sunset The proposed second Sphinx site at 296° bearing aligns to summer solstice sunset circa 6,500 BC The opposite direction (116°) aligns to winter solstice sunrise at the same period

Mark Lerner (not Norden) shows the Great Sphinx aligns to summer solstice sunset at 296° circa 6,500 BC. The proposed second Sphinx sits at 296° bearing with approximately 378 reads separating it from the original on the Giza grid.

Key facts claimed:

- Mark Lerner) research shows the Great Sphinx and Second Pyramid create the 'horizon' (arket) symbol aligned to summer solstice sunset

- The proposed second Sphinx site at 296° bearing aligns to summer solstice sunset circa 6,500 BC

- The opposite direction (116°) aligns to winter solstice sunrise at the same period

- Andrew Collins uses a Giza grid measurement system based on 'reads' (10.5 ft units)

- The grid distance between existing Sphinx and proposed second Sphinx site is approximately 378 reads
