THis is a great example of why Egyptologists, both professional and amateur, have to be careful about what they say. When a real Egyptologist says "dates are uncertain", they are talking about the absolute dating being bantered about within a range of ten or fifteen years... maybe fifty on the outside. Some pseudohistorian bozo then grabs that statement and miraculously transforms it into ten or fifteen centuries... or worse: ten or fifteen millenia.


I recall the same kind of abuse coming from Hancock when he was arguing against the 14C dating of Tiawanaku (?). (paraphrasing) "Since it's not reliable within ten or twenty years, then why not a thousand years, or fifteen hundred years?"

Thanks for posting another demonstration.


Oh, Katherine... but is your t-shirt autographed?
