Suppose The Sphinx is a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head of a human. In Greek tradition, it has the head of a human, sometimes with hawk-like wings, and is portrayed as a woman. The antecedent of the Sphinx is the Greek Hellenic sphinx, which has its origins in the ancient Egyptian deity, Aker, a guardian deity who was responsible for protecting the pharaoh and the afterlife.
Can we infer that "The Sphinx was a peaceful creature"? Yes, no, or maybe?
