Lost city of the Grand Canyon

No, it's not possible that any Egyptian "lost civilization" was there. Of course, there could be many "lost civilizations" in North America. All that means is we haven't found them yet. We know there were people here.

From the newspaper article:

(My emphasis)
Note the bolded portions, and that the article says it was first "mentioned some time ago in the Gazette." Anyone wanna bet that it was four days prior to this date that the first story appeared?

There is a rather long analysis of this crazy tale at the following webpage:
jcolavito.tripod.com...

If you run a Google Search on G.E. Kincaid (click that link for it), you'll find the same story repeated everywhere, ad infinitum. The page I linked above also turns up. It's the only one I've found that doesn't try to make some claim of "CONSPIRACY!!!"

I have no doubt that the whole story is a hoax.

That's interesting...hope they discover more info about it.

jonSUN, as Duncan has said many times. The names came after, during a period where exploreres were obsessed with Egpty. Many of them used such names to help boost the sites, the finds, etc. Including trying to make links between the two cultures - a problem we now see.

These however are not Tribal American names nor were they given to them by the Tribal Americans. The article itself is interesting, however it lacks proof and evidence.
