URANIUM ENRICHMENT…IN ANCIENT EGYPT!?!?!?

January 19, 2026 / Joseph P. Farrell

We start off this week's blogs with a bang (quite literally) because of an important article that P.T. spotted and shared (with our immense gratitude). In fact, I'm so grateful for this story not only because of its contents, but also because it gives me a reason not to have to blog about geopolitics, finances, the cultural meltdown of the West, Islamunism and New York mayors, &c &c. Except, alas, in this case there are some intriguing geopolitical implications, but we will return to those.

As you can tell from reading the headline to this blog, P.T. spotted an article about the presence of uranium in Egyptian burial mastabas. Now, I've written about this strange presence in Egyptiuan monuments before. See, for example, any of my books on the Great Pyramid-as-weapon hypothesis, or blogs on this site, such as https://gizadeathstar.com/2025/04/the-os...r-reactor/

But this current article goes much farther:

The Pharoah's Curse: New Evidence of Unusual Deaths Associated With Ancient Egyptian Tombs

Now, if this were simply another article reporting on the presence of uranium at various ancient Egyptian archaeological sites, or the latest attempt to hypothesize some scientific basis and explanation for "the curse of the Pharaohs" I would, of course, be interested and intrigued, but I would hardly be as exercised over the article as I am about this one. This article, however, argues that not only was there an intentional presence of uranium at these sites, but that in addition to being intentional, it was also... well, I'll let you read the article from pages 45 to 47 yourself:

The Book of the Dead also made a distinction between the prior kings of the Old Kingdom versus ordinary mankind who were characterised (in translation) as ‘common folk’ (Faulkner, 1972, Sp. 38B, 42, 65, 69, 161, 182); noting that the transformations of Osiris [into light] were not understood by mankind, because it was an exceedingly great mystery which no man knew. It was an abominable thing not to be disclosed to those who dwell in the swamps. (Budge, 1895, pp. 187, 217, 219; Budge, 1901, Chapt. CLXIII, p. 535). The magic of transformation was not just a secret but a terrible, dreadful thing not to be revealed. The old texts were overlaid with symbolic religious rituals and language in a childlike attempt to imitate the earlier gods, but there remains clear textual and physical evidence of the original literal content. The outcome was vividly recounted in the funerary texts, albeit in personified language. Osiris came forth from the House of the Rising Sun (akhet, horizon), from  the Island of Fire, where his body was filled with magic. Flame went up from the pyramid, causing fear and trembling in those who watched. He rose in the mountain (pyramid) with a double plume of rays of tu rquoise light to the height of heaven, flooding the world with light. The [two] apertures of the sky windows were opened, the sky reeled, the earth quaked (Faulkner, 1969, Utt. 477, 479, 482, 485, 503, 508-510, 536, 584, 604; Faulkner, 1973, Sp. 30, 283, 317,422, 573, 609, 650, 707, 753, 849).


The source of the power of transformation was the invisible ‘efflux’ from the magic offerings. Osiris declared (in the Coffin Texts) - I have power by means of offerings; I go forth by means of the efflux; by means of the magic; take the efflux so you shall not be inert; go forth from the burning fire; I have eaten the magic of the spirits of the magic food; the souls are in me, the shades are in me; I am transformed into mighty spirits; I shine in the sunshine, from the efflux. I am the primeval one; my soul possesses power in its primeval form. (Faulkner, 1973, Sp. 95, 101-2, 246-7, 317, 469, 573, 690, 705, 824, 829, 936, 895). The magic food was detailed as tchefau, light food in the form of cakes and ale (or bread and milk). Cakes of saffron were brought to him [Osiris]; he was given saffron cakes in the coffer; the cakes of saffron are the eye of Horus. (Budge, 1895, Chapt. XVII, pp 52-53, Figure 1). Saffron (yellow) cake was further detailed in a series of Food Spells in the Coffin Texts where the efflux came from magic food of [unknown hieroglyph] in portions of 2-3- 5; the movement of the sunshine was provided in meals of 2-3-5 portions (reversed in the hieroglyphs) (Faulkner, 1969, Utt. 205, 409; Faulkner, 1973, Sp. 191, 209, 211, 212, 217, 218, 587, 659, 667; Figure 2). Yellowcake-235 is recognisable now as the crude ore of uranium-235 (U235), the primary fuel of modern nuclear technology. Crude yellowcake is insufficient to cause a nuclear reaction and must be enriched to a higher concentration, which has the form of a chilled milky liquid. That process was also detailed in the Coffin Texts in recognizable terminology. The food [yellowcake] was made pure, and the milk was restored to its proper level. Osiris declared - I am the son of the Milk Goddess. My mother gave censing of incense (efflux). I suckled my mother (for milk) of the rotting putrefaction (decay). He swallowed the spirits; he received pure offerings whose names and shapes were unknown. (Faulkner, 1973, Sp. 529, 467-8, 335, 306, 1017). Elsewhere the Pyramid Texts presented similar detail - Osiris received the milky fluid from the breasts of Isis; he received the efflux from the cold drink; the efflux of decay; the cold drink is yours, efflux is yours, the powers are in it. (Faulkner, 1969, Utt. 413, 470, 661, 423, 536, 553, 676, 679). (Emphases added)

Now, this is jaw-dropping for several reasons, not the least of which is (1) ancient Egypt (or rather, whatever civilization engendered it) not only had an awareness of radioactive material, but had some, perhaps primitive, perhaps more advanced means, of enriching it.  The article spends much of its time investigating radiation-caused cancers as being an explanation for the "curse of the pharoahs" and the mysterious deaths of people in the archaeological teams investigating ancient Egyptian sites, including burial sites. Additionally, the article mentions a fact about the Great Pyramid that virtually every researcher in the alternative research community who has ever investigated the structure has known for a long time: there appears to have been, at some time in the distant past, an explosion that occurred inside the structure, which left the surface of the granite in the so-called King's Chamber vitrified, and the stones themselves offset from their  careful alignments.

The takeaway is breathtaking: there was an ancient (probably very ancient) technology of isotope enrichment.

We may surmise that this had to be a very ancient technology because as the article also points out, some sort of knowledge was lost in the transition from "divine" or "semi-divine" kings, and the human kings who succeeded them in Egypt, a distinction that clearly emerges in the Egyptian King's list of Manetho. Those divine and demi-god(half human, half "god) kings ruled, according to Manetho's list, tens and hundreds of thousands of years ago, long before conventional academic narratives state that dynastic Egypt came into existence.

There is also something else implied in the article, even more breathtaking, and this brings us to "jaw-dropping reason" number (2): the radioactive material appears to have been involved in some sort of technological version of life extension or "immortality", and in conjunction with the Great Pyramid itself. Exactly what, or how, this occurred neither the article, nor we, know.

We may, however, speculate, and with this speculation we have arrived at our daily nosedive off of the speculation tree's uttermost twig, into the canyon of speculation below, for nuclear reactions involve the creation and manipulation of plasma, and if you've been paying attention lately, there is a highly speculative hypothesis being entertained in some circles that some plasmas might actually be very different, and very strange, forms of life, and moreover, that some of them might actually be intelligent, possessed of kinds of "light bodies".  There is even a version of the hypothesis that maintains that all organic life has some connection to a subtle plasma life which actually enlivens or animates it.  If that is the connection, then it would go a long way to explain why pyramids - at least in Egypt's case - have long been almost subliminally associated with death and immortality. It might also have a great deal to do with why some ancient texts describe the Great Pyramid as a tremendously powerful weapon, and why wars were fought over its possession.


And finally, it might explain why there is so much interest by the great powers to dominate that region. The USSA did, after all, invade Iraq to forestall its development of weapons of mass destruction. As I've argued many times, perhaps that was not as much the lie that people have made it out to be. The lie was only about what kind of weapons of mass destruction they were seeking to prevent Saddam Hussein from developing, for they were not the modern weapons at all, but as I have argued, very ancient ones...

See you on the flip side...
