Sphinx
Sphinx is what it's called. It is from Ancient Egypt when the pyramids were built.
according to history it was built to the glory of the Pharaoh as a tomb.
The Great Pyramid and the Sphinx are located on the Giza Plateau, just outside of Cairo, Egypt. This area is part of the larger Giza Necropolis, which includes several other pyramids and ancient structures. The Great Pyramid, built for Pharaoh Khufu, is the largest of the three pyramids in Giza, and the Sphinx, with its lion's body and human head, is one of the most iconic monuments in Egypt.

Egypt Was The Great Sphinx
If you are talking about the sphinx in Egypt then it is the nose. When the British occupied Egypt they used the sphinx as target practice and took away much of its face. Last I heard restoration attempts are underway.
Because it was built there as part of a complex.
The largest, oldest, and most famous sphinx statue lies in the desert near Giza, Egypt. It is called the Great Sphinx. The Great Sphinx was built about 4,500 years ago.
