Script: What happened to the Sphinx's nose? A mystery shrouded in sand and time. Many believe it was Napoleon's troops who blasted it off, but here's the twist. Paintings from the 1700s show the Sphinx already noseless. In fact, Arab historian Al-Maqrizi wrote in the 15th century that a zealous Sufi destroyed it to stop idolatry. The desert winds and erosion did their part too. Imagine the sands whispering secrets, as the Sphinx gazes silently across the ages, nose forever lost to time.
