Split, Сroatia - June 22, 2014: Sphinx. Ancient sculpture. Medieval architecture. Split. Apparently, Emperor Diocletian was a great lover of Egypt and he acquired more than a dozen granite sphinxes from Luxor. Only three sphinxes remain today including this one on Peristil near the Cathedral of Saint Domnius in Split, Croatia. The sphinx is a mythical creature with, as a minimum, the head of a human and the body of a lion. The Egyptian sphinx is typically shown as a man. In addition, the Egyptian sphinx was viewed as benevolent, but having a ferocious strength similar to the malevolent Greek version and both were thought of as guardians often flanking the entrances to temples.
