Historical Events · Historical revisionism

Accounts claiming G.E. Kincaid (via a 1909 Arizona Gazette report) found an Egyptian or Near Eastern cave complex above the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon—mummies, artifacts, hieroglyph-like markings—and that the Smithsonian covered it up or erased follow-up, versus mainstream archaeology and Smithsonian-facing accounts treating the story as a hoax, misreport, or uncorroborated newspaper piece with no verified expedition or collection.
