Do we have a record of Prof. Jordan's existence? I know Stephen Mahler's book claims to, but it doesn't elaborate. Oh, wait, it does a bit..

In the Denver Museum, I was able to locate back copies of the Smithsonian’s annual reports. I did not find the year 1909, but in the 1911 report, the name S.A. Jordan was listed as a field archaeologist for the Smithsonian Institute.

Land of Osiris
But who exactly is Stephen Mahler? Is
The Land of Osiris the only book he's written? I think it is. His claim about finding info on Jordan doesn't seem verifiable, and it looks like he's the only one that's made that claim.
I just searched ancestry.com's 1910 census records for "S* A* Jordan" born 1850-1875 with occupation as geologist, professor, educator, etc. unsuccessfully
