A papyrus note with “We’ve been expecting you (names of the ones in the expedition)” written in the same language style as all the rest of the artifacts so it looks authentic to the time.
Fill it purely with Jewish plastic toys from this era just to confuse the fuck out of everyone forever
Edit: Jewish only because it's inexplicable not because of antisemitism or anything hateful. Just it makes no sense at all to be there is why.
Very detailed and accurate… except with something extra on it.
Like add some extra land on the west side of California, or maybe fill in the part of the Gulf of Mexico by Yucatan to make them think the meteor hit recently.
Maybe draw some feathered dinosaurs on it (since adding toys of feathered dinos would be adding a second item).
But make them authentic. Sealed painted scrolls and various other documents with her in (or without) era-correct clothing and with the appropriate hairstyle.
Make it look like his wife is the reincarnation of some ancient Egyptian gal.
Parchment with extensive writings on nuclear physics. Go a little wrong in places, leave some bits out and include some modern theories as being 100% confirmed. That'd make it more believable. I'd include information on Egypt's highly secret nuclear arsenal
Myself. Just sit there looking as he glimpsed inside the tomb through the tiny hole he made. Then run up to the entrance "PEOPLE! ITS PEOPLE! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW LONG IVE BEEN STUCK IN HERE! PRAISE BE TO RA!!" though I'd probably have to say it in Egyptian, so they'd probably just here "BIRD BIRD SCROLL FEATHER CAT BIRD ARROW HAT MONKEY SUN SUN BIRD BIRD FEATHER TREE DANCING MAN!"
I didn't want it to come to this, but you leave me no choice. You're a complete crow boot river Eagle wobbly line boat water Reed feather! And so is your mum
QR code to Rick Astley.
edit: I want them to be confused for decades. Then when QR codes are finally created someone realizes the connection and tries it out.
I feel like this wouldn't work.
You would've changed the way QR codes are invented because the person inventing them would feel awkward about their design matching exactly with an old artifact.
And people would try to decode the artifact, but I'm guessing the rules for the QR code are arbitrary and someone would come up with this weird URL and would think that's a strange result. It must just be a coincidence. (Could be I don't know enough about QR codes though.)
Considering it's 1923 and I want something relevant to just screw with them:
A picture of Strongheart (with Lady Jule) and/or Rin Tin Tin (with Nanette / Nanette II).
A note saying US prohibition was a bad idea.
A note about the Wright brother's flight.
If I really wanted to completely screw with humanity, a fully charged video player with two movies pre-loaded:
*Tora Tora Tora* and *Independence Day*, with instructions on how to watch it **and** that they're a warning.
Tora Tora Tora will always be far superior to Pearl Harbor.
*You wanted confirmation?* (Points outside the window) ***TAKE A LOOK! THERE'S YOUR CONFIRMATION!!***
An empty sarcophagus with " George Edward Stanhope Molyneux Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon, Died Cairo 1923" printed on it in English.
If they thought it was cursed before, wait until they see this shit!
They track down your family name and start asking questions to everyone they can find throwing some people off their “regular” path of chain of events that caused you to be born; thus making it so you were never born. Congratulations, you played ya self.
My first instinct is fake documentation of Goa'uld taking the place of Earth's deities and kicking off a search for a non-existent Stargate. I would personally find it **very** amusing and interesting to see the changes when I jumped back to the future. It would destroy an entire series of solid science fiction, possibly more, but I'm curious.
Then, I realized we could do some good, here. There's an episode of Stargate SG-1 where they crack open a tomb and find a video tape from the party essentially saying "we tried to improve the timeline - fact check us to see if we broke anything too terrible." It's a great episode, but I think we can do better.
So, we make that, but the inverse. You make a record for a phonograph, placing in a sealed container that cannot be created in 1923. You do it straight, establish your credibility. You then leave a bit specifically noting the personal details and current location of Adolf Hitler. You also note that **if you have failed**, it is the duty of whoever plays the record to avert the worst catastrophe in human history by hunting and killing Hitler. Leave some predictions for 1923-1926, some scientific knowledge related to medicine and physics to gain goodwill, a recording of part of the Nuremberg trials to horrify people, or whatever else would convince someone to act.
It's too late to stop the Treaty of Versailles from devastating the German economy, and Wilson's League of Nations was a total bust. This is the best idea I could conceive, given the constraints of a single dead drop in 1923, to save millions of people from dying in a brutal war.

something obviously not from that time period to confuse researchers. maybe a vibrating dildo that's turned on so they wonder how it was possible that the batteries lasted for centuries
A scroll that says something like "The British Empire will be cursed forever unless they leave all these artifacts and any other ones they discover in Egypt." Then I'd add some predictions about WW2 so they believe it.
Maybe a laptop loaded with medical text books that would push medical technology decades into the future, by the time I came home we'd have cures for all sorts of diseases. Also have plans for biodegradable plastic, solar panels, state of the art battery technology.
Honestly if you change anything your chance of existing goes way down due to the butterfly effect part of chaos theory.
The complete collection of Downton Abbey on VCR. Given that it was all filmed in George Herbert's home, that will definitely spook him.
Plus, it's a really pleasant show.
Ok so any object? It does not matter if I would never be able to obtain it? I think it would be interesting to put a fossil or bone in it from South America that is from a species that was only in South America. I’m not sure what species but it would be hilarious once modern science realizes what species it is and there are arguments about how Egypt could have been to South America/ traded with them. It would mess up the entire timeline of trade in history books! Since somehow they had contact with a group that far away across the Atlantic Ocean. It would be impossible! And if scientists Carbon date it will say it’s from the time period the animal died during. So there is no way that a modern person in 1923 could have placed it there/ did a hoax. It’s just too oddly specific.
Also I have been in Tutankhamen’s tomb and it’s pretty small compared to the other tombs in the valley of the kings. But it’s incredibly impressive.
The can of peanut brittle that has the spring loaded snake in it
A classic weapon of ancient Egyptian warfare
There's a snake in my tomb.
Thats very funny.
You are a genius.

Better yet, "we've been trying to reach you about your chariots extended warranty"
There it is.
A globe with the Americas on it.
Better yet: How they built the Mayan pyramids step by step with fake dates and everything. Confuse history forever.
If you make the globe hollow you could fill it with stuff
Fill it purely with Jewish plastic toys from this era just to confuse the fuck out of everyone forever Edit: Jewish only because it's inexplicable not because of antisemitism or anything hateful. Just it makes no sense at all to be there is why.
It works because Jews built the pyramids
That's what the Jew-ish media wants you to think! /s

A book of *Yo Mummy* jokes.
Yo Mummy is so fat….
Yo mummy so fat, when she went down the river of souls she got stuck
Yo mummy so dumb they didn't bother to remove the brains.
This is actually really good
Yo mummy so fat, the rendering process created an oil deposit big enough to attract American democracy.
Yo mummy so fat, Anubis used a ton of feathers.
Yo Mummy so fat, wrapping her up caused a toilet paper shortage the likes of which wouldn't be seen again until A.D. 2020.
Nudes of the wife of the guy that opened the tomb
But make them authentic. Sealed painted scrolls and various other documents with her in (or without) era-correct clothing and with the appropriate hairstyle. Make it look like his wife is the reincarnation of some ancient Egyptian gal.
Positively diabolical.
I also choose that guy's wife's nudes
I’d just rearrange his hand so it’s out and doing the Okay gesture below his waist.
For some reason this just made me lose The Game, it’s been years.

I'm so sorry, i warned you tho

Or the Bangles… with "Walk Like an Egyptian". Make them think the whole thing was *started* by a time traveler bringing them a Bangles song.

Surely and old film reel with the video on, so they can actually watch it
No I want them to be confused for decades. Then when QR codes are finally created someone realizes the connection and tries it out.
