Geocache Description:


c.1450 BC, After a military campaign in Nubia, Thutmose III had a stele erected at the Temple of Amun, beneath the Jebel Barkal outcropping. The stele describes how "a star came down" to set fire to Thutmose's adversaries. This has been cited by Dr Condon (Condon Committee) via the purported Tulli Papyrus, likely a fraud. This alleged translation—published in issue 41 of the Fortean Society's magazine Doubt—used such Fortean tropes as "circles of fire" and fish that "fell down from the sky".  The exact details of the papyrus is thought impossible to confirm due to transcription errors.
