What tribe do you belong to... Chief? Hekawi. The earth doesn't wobble, it is flat.

PS: The Sphinx suffers from water errosion. Did you hear that the proved the orbit of the earth has a wabble, 4000 and 6000 years ago? Be careful, or you may be accused of wabble wousing. The Earth's travel through space does indeed vary with time; the aspect most likely called a "wobble" is the direction in which the Earth tilts. This completes a circle about every 23,000 years. The degree of tilt, though, wobbles on a 41,000 year cycle. There is, also, a cycle of the eccentricity of the Earth's orbit (in other words, how "egg-shaped" it is) that runs on about a 100,000 year loop. The interaction of these cycles can produce dramatic effects--ice ages, for example. Level Head
