See! I wasn't lying. In this nearly head-on shot, you can see how it's in front of of Khafre's pyramid.

At one time, there was doubtlessly a funerary complex up on the plateau, between the pyramid and the Sphinx, and a causeway would have connected the two of them. When Khafre kicked the canoptic jar, his body was brought here via the nile and dragged up the causeway to its resting place in the pyramid.
