Egyptian Pharaonic Statues Found In Sudan

Found further south in Sudan than any previous statue of a pharoah.

So far south that one of the finder's colleagues was shocked:

Dr. Anderson confirmed that no statue of a pharaoh has ever been found further south of Egypt than this one. “That’s one reason it’s so exciting and very interesting,” she said. The discovery was such a surprise that one colleague of Anderson's didn't believe it at first saying that the statues “can’t possibly be (at) Dangeil.”

I guess that like with global warming, the science had been settled...

Anyway, here's a pic of the statue:

Look On My Works, Ye Mighty, And Despair!

Or, "Who are you going to believe, me or you lying eyes?"
