Is this the ship of General Vyse? I heard that one sank with the sarcophagus of Menkaure onboard, but I don’t recall anything about valuables turning up in the pyramid of Khafre.

oh yeah, sorry, the Beatrice was Menkaure’s stuff, 1832 (?).

Seems to me some later (New Kingdom) interment was found inside one or more Old Kingdom sarcophagi in either Khafre or Menkaure, or both. Also, isn’t the Khafre material in the British Museum?
