Sphinxes weren’t a common Roman sculptural decoration. Most Egypt sphinx is like a mythical lion, a human head and body. In the Greek tradition, it has a lion with its hips twitching and sometimes a bird with great wings and a human face.
In early Greek mythology the sphinx was a figure who came from the underground and was a demon of destruction and bad luck. Later on she became the emblem of some Greek city-states and statues of sphinxes guarded the entrance to some Greek cities such as Thebes. In the classical Greek play Oedipus by Sophocles, she is shown as the mysterious guardian of Thebes who asks passersby to answer riddles before they can continue on their journeys. She strangled and devoured anyone who couldn’t answer her questions.
