as a sacred site? 132 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:47,840 它的建筑是否被遗弃 Were its buildings abandoned 133 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,280 长达数百年甚至数千年？ for hundreds or even thousands of years? 134 00:09:51,360 -->

00:15:00,400 这实乃举世瞩目的 That is genuinely a great thing 210 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:04,360 伟大事业 and something the whole world can appreciate. 211 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,320 当工人们全力赶工 While workers race to complete 212 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,920 21世纪工程奇迹时 a 21st century engineering marvel, 213 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,120 附近的考古学家正在研究 nearby, archaeologists are investigating 214 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,720 古埃及最具标志性的遗迹之一 one of Ancient Egypt's most iconic monuments. 215 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,840 他们即将揭开吉萨高原上 They're close to unlocking the last secrets 216 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:32,000 神秘狮身人面像的最后谜团 of the mysterious Great Sphinx on the Giza Plateau. 217 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,640 这座古老雕像长240英尺 The ancient statue is 240 feet long 218 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,720 高逾65英尺 and more than 65 feet tall. 219 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,840 航拍显示它并非 Looking at it from the air reveals 220 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,000 由石块堆砌而成 it's not built from stone blocks, 221 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,120 而是从高原基岩凿刻而出 it's cut out from the plateau's bedrock. 222 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,400 古埃及人描绘众神时 The ancient Egyptians depicted most of their gods 223 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:04,960 多采用人身兽首的形象 with the body of a human and the head of an animal. 224 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,960 兽首象征神明的特质 The beast defined the god's characteristics. 225 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,800 战神塞赫麦特以狮首强调 Sekhmet had a lion's head to emphasize 226 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,040 其战争之神身份 his role as god of war. 227 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,080 狮身人面像首次打破 For the first time in ancient Egypt, 228 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,560 这一传统 the Sphinx flipped this convention. 229 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:31,000 法老头像被安放在狮身上 The head of a pharaoh was placed on the body of a lion, 230 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,640 使在世统治者神格化 so a living ruler became a God. 231 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,240 考古学家马克·莱纳认为 Archaeologist Mark Lehner believes the logic 232 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,080 下令建造狮身人面像的统治者 behind this switch was clear to the ruler 233 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,480 深谙其中逻辑 who ordered the Sphinx's construction. 234 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,400 当人类头颅置于狮身时 When you put the human head on the lion body, 235 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,480 它象征人类智慧 it represents human intelligence 236 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,200 掌控强大力量 in control of a very powerful force. 237 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,400 几个世纪以来 For centuries, mystery has surrounded 238 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,600 究竟哪位法老以自身形象雕刻了狮身人面像 which pharaoh had the Sphinx carved in his image. 239 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,880 如今马克认为已找到答案 Now, Mark believes he has an answer. 240 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,160 关于建造狮身人面像的法老身份 The identity of the pharaoh 241 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:24,280 学界争论激烈 who built the Sphinx is fiercely debated. 242 00:17:24,360 --> 00:17:26,440 通过对比狮身人面像面容 Now, by comparing the Sphinx's face 243 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,760 与埃及统治者雕像 to statues of Egypt's rulers, 244 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:33,400 马克·莱纳认为可解开这个谜题 Mark Lehner believes he can answer the riddle. 245 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,280 狮身人面像的面部特征 The sphinx face does bear a resemblance 246 00:17:37,360 --> 00:17:40,000 在眼距、眉形、鼻唇比例上 in terms of the spacing of the eyes and the eyebrows 247 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,040 尽管鼻子已缺失 and the nose and the lips, although the nose is missing, 248 00:17:42,120 --> 00:17:45,120 与卡夫拉雕像高度相似 to statues of Khafre. 249 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,320 卡夫拉统治埃及 Khafre ruled Egypt 250 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,000 距今四千五百年前 four and a half thousand years ago. 251 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,760 他建造了吉萨建筑群中第二大金字塔 He built the second largest pyramid of the Giza complex, 252 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,320 马克认为考古证据表明 and Mark thinks the archaeological evidence 253 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:11,320 这位法老也是狮身人面像的建造者 suggests this pharaoh ordered the Sphinx's construction too. 254 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,400 强有力的证据是 What does speak very powerfully 255 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,640 卡夫拉建造顺序表明 that Khafre built the Sphinx is the sequence of quarrying 256 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,520 狮身人面像是 and construction that tells you 257 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,960 其大金字塔建筑群中 that the Sphinx was one of the last things 258 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,040 最后完成的工程 that Khafre was doing as part of his Great Pyramid Complex. 259 00:18:30,360 --> 00:18:33,440 如今狮身人面像与吉萨金字塔 Today the Sphinx and the Giza Pyramids 260 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,560 是埃及首要旅游胜地 are Egypt's number one tourist destination. 261 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,040 在埃及壮丽的红海沿岸 On the country's stunning Red Sea coast, 262 00:18:45,120 -->

这里吸引了追求里维埃拉生活方式的埃及富豪 rich Egyptians seeking a Riviera lifestyle. 272 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,880 该项目通过建造人工水道 The project involves completely re-modeling 273 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,760 湖泊和岛屿彻底重塑海岸线 the coastline by creating manmade inlets, 274 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,040 最终将容纳 lakes and islands that will eventually 275 00:19:43,120 --> 00:19:46,040 2.5万居民 accommodate 25,000 residents. 276 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,960 乔治·埃利亚是负责实施 George Elia is the developer charged with making 277 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,160 这一非凡改造的开发负责人 this remarkable transformation happen. 278

critics believe El Gouna is a huge financial gamble 290 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,800 有批评认为埃尔古纳是场豪赌 given Egypt's recent political turmoil. 291 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:54,000 2011年革命后游客量暴跌 Tourist numbers collapsed after the 2011 revolution. 292 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,240 现正缓慢恢复 They are now slowly recovering, 293 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,720 但再度动荡可能导致数据下滑 but further unrest could see them dwindle once again. 294 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,760 不确定性给乔治带来 The uncertainty piles the pressure on George 295 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:10,760 按期按预算交付别墅的压力 to deliver the villas on time and on budget. 296 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,960 若延期交付 If we don't deliver or we are late, 297 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,920 将造成严重问题 it's a big problem. 298 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,080 公司会损失大量收入 The company loses a lot of revenue. 299 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,760 至少今日 For today at least, 300 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,280 泻湖抽沙工程按计划进行 pumping sand from this lagoon is on schedule 301 00:21:27,360 -->
