Hawass makes it quite clear in this tale what he is showing them is actually in the RC and not a book.

The copy makes it quite clear it is referring to Dahshur. The rub, again, is Hawass seems quite convinced he has physically verified a date in the RC that refers to the 17th year. If so he must have written about this discovery apparently since 2001.
