A secret history (or shadow history) is a revisionist interpretation of either fictional or real history which is claimed to have been deliberately suppressed, forgotten, or ignored by established scholars. “Secret history” is also used to describe an alternative interpretation of documented facts which portrays a drastically different motivation or history from established historical events.

The Colossi of Memnon each weigh 720 Tons, and were carved from one piece of Quartzite stone (1000 Tons estimated prior to being cut and carved). Even more interesting, is that they originate from a stone quarry in modern day Cairo, Egypt - 420 miles (675 km) away.
