Depends on whose Sphinx:
The Egyptian Sphinx was said to guard the tombs of the pharohs. Some also claim it may have been the site (or marker) for a secret temple.
The Greeks also had a sphinx (taken from the Egyptian model) from which we get the classic riddle "What walks on four legs in the morning, 2 legs in the afternoon and three legs in the evening" (I'm not gonna give you the answer. Have to go find it yourself :p). This sphinx would devour anyone who was unable to answer her riddle, finally being beaten by Oedipus.
