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) Stan, another Time Lord, also met Cheops, but remained bitter about being unable to talk Cheops into treating the workers on his pyramids better.

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)
In one of the infinite parallel universes of "possible space", (COMIC: Fire and Brimstone) the last clue left behind on Gallifrey by Ulysses as to his whereabouts led his son the Doctor to a sarcophagus kept in the Cairo Museum in 1994, which was allegedly that of Pharaoh Cheops. Ulysses's face was painted on the sarcophagus, and when they opened it, it was empty, save for a note written in Gallifreyan from Ulysses to the Doctor. This led the Doctor and Barusa to believe that the historical figure of "Cheops" had merely been an identity temporarily assumed by the Time Lord, who had subsequently faked his death and left ancient Egypt.
