If you are asking about the pyramids at Giza in Egypt, the most famous stone statue is the Sphinx, a statue with the head of a human and the body of a lion. However, in ancient Egyptian mythology, the gods were often depicted having the body of a human and the head of an animal; each god was associated with a particular animal and would often be shown having the head of that animal. For instance, Bastet was a goddess associated with cats, so she is often shown with the head of a cat and the body of a human female.

What is a pyramid cut in half?

A pyramid cut in half refers to a geometric shape resulting from slicing a pyramid through its apex and base, creating two identical halves. Each half retains the triangular faces of the original pyramid but is now a triangular prism with a base that mirrors the base of the pyramid. This cut can help visualize the internal structure of the pyramid and is often used in mathematical discussions or architectural designs.
