Description:
In 1837, deep within the Great Pyramid of Giza, British army officer Colonel Richard W. Howard Vyse made a claim that would help define Egyptology for the next 200 years: the “discovery” of painted hieroglyphs, including the royal cartouche of Khufu, supposedly the pyramid’s builder.
Yet, when the surviving notebooks, sketches, and first-hand accounts from Vyse’s time are carefully examined, a different and deeply unsettling picture begins to emerge. These accounts reveal troubling discrepancies—erasures, manipulated dates, and contradictory statements—suggesting that the painted markings (including the famous “Khufu cartouche”) may not be ancient at all, but the product of a Victorian deception.
Author and independent researcher, Scott Creighton, conducts a forensic re-evaluation of what really happened inside those hidden chambers of the Great Pyramid in 1837.
