I'm looking at the problem of a 24 year reign for Sneferu against sources saying the Red/North Pyramid was built in the 30th year of his reign. Evidently Stadelman thinks he had a much larger reign and discusses this - Google's snippet is: Khufu's National Project R. Stadelman, «Beiträge zur Geschichte des Alten ... a cattle-count that usually took place every other year, ratherby Doug Weller - Ancient Egypt

He even contradicted himself, saying that he saw 10 in a thousand with light eyes and then 10 in a thousand with blue eyes.

A comment about Larsen from someone who was at the conference: "he did not claim that the map was definitely genuine. Instead, he said that his research - and he pointed to the need for further analysis - had not found any evidence that the map was a fake. He did not say that the presence of anatase titanium dioxide could not be consistent with a recent origin. Rather, he suggested a possiblby Doug Weller - Ancient History
