The Tutankhamun dagger made with NOT terrestrial material

Since the discovery of his tomb in 1922 he has not stopped surprising us, and now more, that Tutankhamun's dagger finally has an explanation.Read on to discover this very interesting story, which has nothing to do with Martians or beings of other worlds.

Tutankhamun's dagger made with non-terrestrial material

In an earlier article we talked about some of the most valuable objects found in the tomb of this pharaoh, which Kingdom in Egypt from 1336 to 1327 BC Among the numerous objects, made of finely worked gold, ivory or wood, Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon came across two daggers placed on the body of the pharaoh child.there was no problem if both struts had been manufactured with common materials, but one of them was made of iron .

You will think that iron is not unusual; and of course not, only that in ancient Egypt the objects made with this metal were very rare and very few, because this civilization, despite all its advances, did not handle iron technology, and was held in more esteem that the same gold .Therefore, the Tutankhamun dagger aroused interest and curiosity from the beginning.In addition, it was not rusty, and the quality of its manufacture surprised the researchers, seeing in it the capacity that arrived to have at the time of Tutankhamun to work the iron.

But where did the metal come from? In Egypt there were no iron mines, but instead, "it rained from the sky", as recorded in an old papyrus.It was literally raining from the sky: they were meteorites fallen in the Egyptian desert that people collect and that, even today, It is possible to continue doing.This theory is not new, although it is already confirmed.While some thought that the source of iron was the meteorites that fell on Earth, others assured that they imported it from the current Turkey, from Anatolia, that if they had an iron metallurgy.

However, in 2010 a very special crater was discovered, a small lunar crater in the middle of the Egyptian desert, baptizing it as Kamil crater. After this discovery, a team led by Francesco Porcelli, Professor of Physics at the Polytechnic University of Turin, tied up the ends and decided to do an ana lysis to the blade of the Tutankhamun dagger.

To do this, logically, they dealt with the Egyptian authorities, faithful and jealous guardians of all the findings, and used the technique of fluorescence a X-ray , non-invasive, to confirm the composition of the iron in their hands.This composition ratified the non-terrestrial origin of the Tutankhamun dagger, as it contains 10% nickel and cobalt 0.6%, typical meteorite concentrations .Impossible that it be an alloy with such concentrations.In addition, it is commonly accepted that ancient civilizations, such as the Inuit, or those of the Tibet , Syria, Mesopotamia and the people of Hopewell , east of North America, have used iron from meteorites to make small tools and ceremonial objects.

Do you know how the Earth formed? Extraordinary

Do you know how the Earth formed? It all started with a tremendous blow.Somewhere in our galaxy a star exploded, throwing masses of gas and dust.This supernova, as these explosions are called, happened about 5 billion years ago. remnants of the explosion then crashed into a nearby gas cloud, gathering the ingredients for our solar system to form. Do you know how the Earth formed? Extraordinary Because the explosion was so energetic, it made the powder mixture get very hot and things began to "cook." The dust pieces began to clump together, making lumps larger and larger , and the mixture began to gather under its own gravity. At one point, the central bulge became so hot and dense that it began to generate its own energy, lighting nuclear fires This was the birth of our sun .The rest of the dusty mixture swirled around the star, fanning on a disk. Gradually the sun grew to reach Current size and the dusty disk cooled.For millions of years, the dust clustered in ...
