Ancient Egyptian Artifacts Contain Meteorite Iron Confirmed by Science

New scientific study confirms ancient Egyptian artifacts—Gerzeh beads (~3200 BC) and Tutankhamun’s dagger (~1323 BC)—were made from meteoritic iron, not earthly ore. High nickel, cobalt, Widmanstätten structure, and troilite inclusions clinch the cosmic origin. Egypt’s early metalworkers cold-hammered sky-iron long before iron smelting. These findings reveal a blend of engineering, spirituality, and early metallurgy, showing how humans honored the sky’s gifts.
