The Sphinx of Thebes, also known as the Oedipus Sphinx, is a mythological creature with the body of a lion and the head of a woman, associated with the Greek tragedy of Oedipus. In contrast, the Great Sphinx of Giza features the body of a lion and a human head, believed to represent the Pharaoh Khafre, and is a monumental statue symbolizing protection and strength.
