Painted limestone Sphinx of Hetepheres II, a daughter of Khufu and royal princess of Egypt during the fourth dynasty of Egypt, who became the queen of Egypt. The statue was found at the site of the pyramid of Djedefre at Abu Rawash. He was a half-brother of hers who married her to become pharaoh after her earlier husband, Kawab, died. This statue is considered by some to be the first example of a Sphinx and is in the collection of the Cairo Museum.
