Best Answer

A sphinx commitee of the Egyptian Antiquities Organization (EAO) made the decision to replace many of the Roman and Baraize restoration stones all around the body. The team used some 2,000 new limestone blocks, which were larger than those of phase III, as replacements, and simply discarded the old blocks. ~EC
