I've never heard of it, but it sounds sort of interesting. I already don't trust archaeologists - not because I necessarily think they lie, but that they're slow to adjust and get overly invested in their theories…and whether directly or indirectly, don't give time to anything else. There's a lot at stake if they adjust - be it books, academic courses, or television shows.
One good example is the discovery of the Gobekli Tepe megalith in Turkey in the 90s. For over a century, Egyptologists have wrongly dated the Pyramids as relatively recent, simply because of holding to some Darwinian trajectory that mankind couldn't have moved stones or built megaliths any older 2500-3000 BC. But now we see this huge megalith in Turkey that dates far older than that (and not just that.. the artwork is pretty skilled/sophisticated. It isn't caveman type drawings like they imagine all post-Ice Age art to be).
So even despite this being known now, they still don't adjust. Their form of Egypt lives in a bubble of it's own made up timeline, and they ignore the big elephant in the room.
That all said, there is one case where they outright lie.. at least until recently. Until the Arab spring, Zahi Hawass was a government crony who ran the Egyptian state run Antiquities office. He insisted on what gets televised (also insisted that he was included in every special, so no doubt you will recognize him if you've ever seen a NatGeo program on Egypt). He's got his own Arab centric narrative for Egypt and has been an enemy to anything teaching much of an ancient Israelite presence in particular. Modern politics between the Arab world and Israeli world play out even in archaeological affairs. It's pretty retarded. Think about it: If Israel is really that ancient, then maybe they do have right to some of the land and aren't necessarily foreign invaders as the usual Arab memes would purport.
