It's plain English actually.


As stated, "Their assuming it was a 4th D. made pc. was a mistake." They believed it to be authentic, and wrote it up, (and acted) accordingly, (see catchpenny.org for the controversy regarding its authenticity that followed, and continues.) It's an old argument, and we still can't date the pc. so it's all speculations.

This possibility still exists: "The iron pc. could've been dropped by a 16th Century worker removing casing stones.")


The AE certainly could've built the Pyramids without iron in the 4th Dynasty, regardless of your attempts to spin it otherwise here.


'We' are welcome to assume whatever, and ignore whatever parts you care to, (see above)....I'll stick to the facts, thanks anyway.


(We already had this circular 'discussion' some months ago....you may recall there were those who claimed loudly that Vyse planted that pc.
