Secrets Of The Gods – Why The Papyrus Of Manetho And His Pre-Dynastic King List Upset Egyptologists
Ellen Lloyd - AncientPages.com - With its magnificent pyramids, the sphinx, mysterious tombs and enigmatic hieroglyphs, Egypt is a country full of ancient secrets, some of which are heavily guarded.

We can either rely on information offered by mainstream Egyptologists, or investigate critically, but with an open-mind what conclusions researchers who stand outside the mainstream academia have reached.
