An architect from an earth-like planet in Alpha Centauri, today answered questions at a press conference held in Cairo about his involvement with the Great Pyramid of Giza.
Ronald Trunt, aged 4,800, surprised tourists when he was seen near to the Great Pyramid around dusk yesterday.
At a press conference today he explained that he had indeed visited earth around
the time of the ancient Egyptians, and 'gave a hand with some building designs'.
When questioned on why he had come back to the very building he had helped to create Trunt said: “I left my favourite pencil behind.” Adding: “Really I only gave them a few pointers, they were a terribly bright bunch you know.”
Trunt then shyly produced photographs of a number of buildings on his planet made to his designs, all showing an clear resemblance to Egyptian pyramids.
Initial onlookers yesterday evening mistook Trunt, who is 8ft, 11inches, green and covered in a fine downy fur, for tourist attraction. After having his photo taken with a number of families, a young boy tried to remove his head, mistaking it for a costume, at which point Trunt explained that was 'just how I look, son.'
Today a the long debated question in the academic archaeological community of whether aliens inspired the Egyptians has now been answered, but remarkably there remain a number of skeptics.
Dr. Marjorie Pelt, an archaeologist from the University of East Grinstead said: “While I accept that Mr Trunt is indeed an alien from outer space, I am totally unwilling to believe his unsubstantiated claims that he helped the Egyptians in any way. Those photographs could clearly have been digitally manipulated.”
