Italian researchers using proprietary satellite scanning software claim to have detected a second sphinx at Giza, but archaeologists and Egypt experts say the evidence does not support these assertions. The scanning technology is proprietary, preventing independent verification. The same technology and researchers (including Filippo Biondi and Corrado Malanga) were involved in detecting cavities under pyramids. However, no confirmed archaeological evidence of a second Sphinx exists, and no excavation has taken place at the identified location.
