Egypt Files is a one-man investigation into the stuff about ancient Egypt that doesn't quite add up — forged inscriptions, undated artefacts, verdicts nobody's actually gone back and tested in a hundred-plus years.
I'm James Cowie. No Egyptology degree, no dig site, just a willingness to read the primary source instead of the plaque next to it. Each case file takes one specific claim, lays out the evidence on both sides, and reaches a verdict — usually one the mainstream account doesn't love.
The rule I hold myself to: this only works if it's more rigorous than what it's picking apart. Every disputed document or artefact referenced here is real and publicly sourced — diary entries, museum archives, the actual plates, not someone's summary of them. Any AI-generated material on the site is for atmosphere only — reconstructions, not evidence — and it's labelled as such. If a claim can't be backed with a source, it doesn't go in the file.
New case files land irregularly, whenever one's actually finished. Subscribe and they'll land in your inbox instead of you having to remember to check back.
More soon.
