The Sphinxes were hybrid monsters whose origins originated in Persia and Egypt, then travelled down through Greece. They had the body of a winged lion, but the head of a woman. The most infamous one, was the Sphinx of Thebes. She had been sent by Hera to plague the city of Thebes, where she would pose riddles that no one could solve and swallow them whole when they couldn't answer. Oedipus eventually was able to reason correctly with the Shinx, which caused her to throw herself from a cliff. Could you solve the riddle?
