<br/><br/> Nowadays Egyptian Great Pyramids and Great Sphinx are suffering from rising of Groundwater  table. This problem promoted the need to characterize the groundwater occurrences in and  around Pyramids Plateau. Multidisciplinary geophysical techniques deployed at the Pyramids  Plateau area where, electric resistivity, seismic refraction, and georadar techniques, conducted to  delineate the water table. The groundwater table located at elevations of 13 to 17 m asl at the  Great Sphinx area, in urbanized area surrounded the Pyramids plateau, located at elevations of 4  to 62 m asl. The groundwater table detected is above the marly limestone which is the formation  of the Sphinx, which causes a serious problem of dissolution that cause the monuments fractures.  It is recommended to lower the water table by a system of dewatering borehole. Sewage water  from the near residence places, nearby Canals, are a sustainable threat for the heritage sites
