In 1924, the British "Israelites" David Davidson and Dr. H. Aldersmith published "The Great Pyramid, Its Divine Message", claiming that the secrets locked into the pyramid at Giza include clues about the future history of Earth. One of these secrets was that the world will end sometime in this month of August, in the year 1953.
Note: in this context, "Israelite" refers to the curious, though once popular, belief that the ten lost tribes of Israel went on to become the people of Britain.
