John Anthony West was an American writer, lecturer, guide, and proponent of the Sphinx water erosion hypothesis in Egyptian geology. He led the Symbolism school of Egyptology, emphasizing a richer understanding of ancient Egyptian culture. Collaborating with geologist Robert M. Schoch, West contributed to a documentary presented by Charlton Heston, which proposed that the Great Sphinx of Giza was much older than previously thought, potentially dating back to 5000 to 7000 BC, challenging conventional timelines.
