As an Irish Mexican descendant, born in California, raised in Texas, I have never heard such a theory. I just thought it seemed odd that most sphinx noses are usually damaged.

When you say "our ancestors", I don't know who you're referring to. I think you might be assuming I know far more about you than is possible from your immediately defensive remark.
