Alien Fetus in King Tut’s Tomb?
Posted by MSH under: Ancient Astronauts; Ancient Egypt; Cult Archaeology; Uncategorized .
Well . . . half of that is right . . . the fetus part, anyway.
The picture below is often offered as part of the “aliens visited ancient Egypt” paleobabblefest on the internet.
The mummified corpse on the right is said to be alien (“just look at the head and eyes . . . must be alien”). Alien researchers also like to wonder aloud why the scientific community hides such information and doesn’t just admit it’s proof of aliens.
Is this an alien body? Nope. And it’s hardly a secret picture, either. The picture can be found in Nicholas Reeves’ book, The Complete Tutankhamen (1990, pp. 124-125), a widely-sold resource on King Tut.
So what is it? It’s one of two HUMAN CHILD fetuses found in Tut’s tomb. Here is the original in situ photo of the tomb tiny sarcophagi:
The scale of the two small fetuses is perhaps better noted from this (again, hardly secret) photo of Zahi Hawass unwrapping one of the fetuses:
Now here’s a closeup of the unwrapped fetus:
Gosh! That sure looks like an alien! Yeah; it looks like an alien all right — unless you’ve ever seen the skull and skeletal remains of a human fetus. Here are some examples at 21.5, 30, 31, and 34 weeks, respectively. They are all photos of human skeletal recreations created by the same medical supply company that I linked to a few posts ago about elongated skulls. (And there are more examples at the medical supply link). Everyone that goes through medical school sees skulls and skeletons like this. No news here; no aliens.
Lastly, here’s a set of human fetal skeletal remains with skull at 32 weeks. (And remember, humans aren’t aliens).

I am the person who wrote the original article about the Alien Fetus buried with King Tut. The picture shown above is NOT the correct one….the correct one can be found in my article posted to Rense.com in 1999, found archived here: http://www.theforbiddenknowledge.com/hardtruth/alien_mummy.htm

@David Innis: As I noted in my other reply on the other blog: So . . . no results = alien DNA? Huh?
And I’ll add something here: Have you *really* checked the scholarly journals for that? Can you tell me how, if so? Just curious.

[...] two children alluded to would be the two “alien babies” paleobabblers love to talk about on the Web. Yes, they’ve been examined. Sex [...]

I am the alien and those are my 2 brothers. They were twins. And they are twins 2day also.

this one certainly fits my wish for absurdity. Ooh, I hope you don’t send some of your alien powers my way.

I would like to see some crazy DNA results for me to become a believer

So is it an alien baby or not? This didn’t help….

where’s the evidence for an ET life form? (ANY ET life form ANYWHERE?)

I can’t believe anyone would actually believe these were aliens, it’s so stupid… By the way, there’s a TV series going on right now about King Tut which includes the stillborns. Quite interesting.

I read Mr. Innis’s story and this one, I want to believe in aliens and ghost, I really do. But until I have my own experience with either or hard evidence is ever uncovered. It’s just hard to believe, I think ancient text and pictorials shows alot of alien depictions, and a cloud that dropped bread on people for 40 years, the account of UFO’s over the capital building in the 50’s, all of that is great, but why haven’t other countries hostile or friend not revealed any of thier downed UFO’s or ancient alien artifacts? Too close to call, I’ll just wait for my experience.

The Bible doesn’t say a cloud dropped bread from heaven (as though it spilled from a circular object in the sky – i.e., a UFO). It simply says the Lord sent it from heaven. People like Barry Downing make people think the text says the former and then proceed to cast the episode as an alien visitation, but the salient part of the description for that “view” isn’t even in the text. Same thing for “alien pictorials”. For example, the “reptilian Anunnaki” figures from Mesoptomia. First, they are all *prehistoric* which means they are not accompanied by writing to tell us what they are. Second, we don’t actually know that the intent of the maker was to make a reptilian form. They could also quite easily represent Asian features (eye slits). Third, some of them were found in ancient trash dumps, hardly a place you’d deposit your deity. My point is that we don’t know what they were or what they mean to show. They could have ritual function and honor terrestrial animals (hundreds of cultures around the world still do that) as opposed to pointing to outer space aliens. Without texts to inform us, we have nothing but guesses (and some pretty bad ones are out there).

I, too, would love to believe that aliens helped mankind create their cultures, but there is another fact here…DNA tests proved these are the children of King Tut. They have yet to do DNA on the mother, but its assumed that Ankhsunamun (Tut’s sister) was their mother. And we also have to remember that they were born to a long line of close family relations.
On top of that, look at the cracks in the skulls of the example fetus’…those cracks are so that the skull can reshape itself to longer and skinnier as it goes through the birth canal (and thus not completely rip the mother apart). Over the next few days after birth, the shape returns to normal and the bones begin to knit together. They don’t need to have the familial birth defects (due to brother-sister/father-daughter marriage) to have an elongated skull at death.
