A combination of sewage, salt, air pollution, sun and wind may destroy the huge statue on the outskirt of Cairo. The statue of the Sungod has the body of a lion and the face of a human being. It is five thousand years old, but it is too badly damaged to be completely saved.
The statue has been dug out of the sand three time. However, the latest problems are much more serious. First there are no proper drains and water pines in the neighbourhood and the underground passage round the statue have become blocked. Too much water has been running into the stone statue for several years. As a result, tiny pieces of salt have been left on the stone and have damaged it.
Thirdly, the statue is being damaged by extremes of temperature. For example, although the air is very cool at night, during the day, the stone of the statue becomes very hot under the strong sun, other natural forces such as severe sandstorms also attack the statue. Finally, the tourists who visit the statue everyday also cause a lot of damage.
