Cheops

Cheops, or, as the Tenth Doctor knew him, Khufu, was a pharaoh whose tomb rested in the Great Pyramid of Giza. The Doctor at some point met him personally, and later told Martha Jones that the Egyptian monarch was a "nice bloke". (COMIC: Minus Seven Wonders)

Erimem's tutor told her that his face was the one on the Great Sphinx, but the Fifth Doctor firmly disputed this. (AUDIO: The Eye of the Scorpion)

Behind the scenes

 * In John Leekley's Doctor Who reboot script proposal Fathers and Brothers, Cheops was the Egyptian name of the Doctor's father, Ulysses.
