Atlantis and the Ten Plagues of Egypt: The Secret History Hidden in the Valley of the Kings
Shows how a desecrated tomb in the Valley of the Kings holds the key to the true history of the destruction of Atlantis
• Reveals that Tomb 55 in the Valley of the Kings was designed not to keep intruders out, but to trap something inside
• Provides forensic evidence proving that the mask believed to be the face of Tutankhamun is actually that of his elder brother Smenkhkare
In Atlantis and the Ten Plagues of Egypt, Graham Phillips explores the excavation of a mysterious and ritually desecrated tomb in the Valley of the Kings, Tomb 55, which he contends holds the key to the true history of the destruction of Atlantis. Unlike other Egyptian tombs designed to keep intruders out, Tomb 55 was constructed to keep something imprisoned within, specifically Smenkhkare, the older brother of Tutankhamun who was deemed responsible for the ten plagues in Egyptian history, to prevent such tragedies from ever happening again. The forensic findings from this tomb coupled with compelling new evidence from the polar ice caps provide sensational evidence that the parting of the Red Sea, the deaths of the first born, and the other plagues that afflicted Egypt were all actual historical events.
Core samples from the polar ice caps indicate that a gigantic volcanic eruption took place in the eastern Mediterranean around the time of Amonhotep’s reign. Other research suggests this to have been the time of the eruption that destroyed the Greek island of Thera, one of the likely locations of Atlantis, and that the subsequent cataclysm may explain the unusual lack of resistance to the new religion installed by Amonhotep’s son, Akhenaten, when he took power several years later.

I enjoyed this book very much. The author does a good job - albeit it takes him a long time - of providing a reasonable possibility of the anomalies discovered in several tombs in the Valley of the Kings and tying those to the Exodus and the plagues that hit Egypt.
What I am appalled at is the title. Atlantis has virtually no place in the book. It's referred to a couple of times in chapter 9 and nowhere else. It seems to me that the publisher/editor (perhaps the author too) thought they could only sell this book if they put the word "Atlantis" in the title. Mind-boggling!

It was interesting in the beginning. They found a lost tomb and it was just all wrong, and then it got so technical I lost my way! Over it!
