Which stone used in great sphinx?

The Great Sphinx of Giza is primarily carved from limestone, specifically a type of limestone known as Tura limestone, which was quarried nearby. This stone is relatively soft, making it easier to carve, but it has also weathered significantly over the centuries. The Sphinx’s body and face exhibit signs of erosion due to exposure to wind and sand. Additionally, some parts may have been faced with harder stones to enhance its appearance.
