I've been playing a lot of AC: Origins recently and I see most of the pyramids are capped with gold, I've also seen this referenced in other movies and media (I.e. The Mummy)
I was wondering if this is true, and how do we know? Saying as even the oldest photos don't show any gold on top
When it first came out, someone asked if the pyramids would still have caps at that time. [So I hope this answer is at least partially useful, though no doubt we have other ancient accounts that are older.] (https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/6h11h4/the_new_assassins_creed_game_is_set_in_ptolemaic/) I'm not sure what the last mention of the gold caps would be, though.
