Task 166, Sphinx, represents every aspect of the rich process and content that is within each task. It is amazing how such an easy to state, easy to start problem has produced so much mathematics.
We suggest you begin by investigating the Iceberg of the Sphinx to understand what we mean by a task being the tip of an iceberg. Then, when you have a bit more time, move on to the links below.
Students and teachers from the middle 90s began the Sphinx adventure. The revelations below would not have happened without the input of these earlier mathematicians. The Sphinx Album continues to grow. If you have Sphinx photos to include, email them with a brief story to our Contacts above.
