According to the Grand Canyon Egyptian Cave Theory, this is how the Egyptian dominions may have looked like in the Mississipi before Columbus arrived in the New World

The Grand Canyon Egyptian cave is the name commonly given to a front-page story published by the Arizona Gazette on April 5, 1909, claiming that a Smithsonian-backed expedition had discovered an immense cavern complex high in the Grand Canyon whose chambers contained mummies, hieroglyphs and other artifacts of purported Egyptian or “Oriental” origin. Subsequent reviews by journalists, librarians, park staff and historians have found no evidence that the expedition occurred, that the named participants ever existed, or that any such cave was documented by authorities. The Smithsonian Institution has repeatedly stated it has no records of the people or project described, and modern reporting characterizes the episode as a local hoax that later fed into internet-era conspiracy theories about suppressed archaeology and alleged cover-ups.
Now overlay that with granite and stone quarries known to have been worked in ancient america. Could be interesting?
The Grand Canyon is along the Colorado River. Not the Mississippi.
Egypt is in Africa, another continent on the other side of the world.
Took me a while to even understand what I’m looking at.
This is getting messy like the book of Mormon
Okay…I don’t think you have any idea how offensive this is and borderline racist…also, geographically so wrong as the Grand Canyon is nowhere near the Mississippi river…but…reality is the native americans had entire cities and nations spread out throughout what is today the United States, just almost everything was built of wood so its why so little of it survived colonization…but…what did survive they built. What your really saying, regardless if you notice it, is “I feel the native Americans could never have done any of this so its far more likely a civilization on the other side of the earth with no technological means to cross the ocean did it”. Really these theories need to put to rest
There’s a great WhyFiles episode on the Grand Canyon story. I’m inclined to believe that G.E. Kincaid did find these caves, and that it’s just more evidence of an ancient global civilization on this planet. It’s an enticing story!
