Alien Visitors Taught Ancient Egyptians How To Use Electricity, Light Bulbs — Stone Relief Shows Aliens Teaching Egyptians How To Build The Dendera Light Bulb

Out-of-place artifacts (OOPArt) theorists claim evidence that the ancient Egyptians had knowledge of electrical technology and that ancient Egyptian priests used electric light bulbs in dark, secret chambers and subterranean crypts. Conspiracy theorists claim that aliens who visited in UFOs imparted knowledge of advanced technology to the ancient Egyptians.

According to conspiracy theorists, stone relief depiction of electrical technology, including an ancient electric light bulb, discovered by archaeologists in crypts beneath the Temple of Hathor at the Dendera Temple complex in Egypt give irrefutable evidence that technologically advanced aliens or time travelers helped ancient Egyptian priests build electrical installations used to light dark and poorly ventilated underground crypts.

The walls of secret chambers beneath the Temple of Hathor in Dendera bear hieroglyph inscriptions and stone relief depicting a large tube-like object — the so-called Dendera light bulb — which OOPArt theorists claim bears an uncanny resemblance to a “Crookes tube” (see image of a Crookes tube below the video), an early version of the modern light bulb.

What makes the resemblance of the Dendera light bulb to a Crookes tube even more striking is that inside the bulb is a wavy or serpentine form that bears a striking resemblance to a filament, the conducting wire inside electric bulbs that glows and gives light when an electric current passes through.

The electrical filament is depicted as a snake because the serpent was a symbol of energy, radiance, and life in ancient Egyptian sacred culture, according to conspiracy theorists.

Ancient Egyptian artists depicted Dendera light bulbs with a faint resemblance to the lotus flower, because the lotus flower was a symbol of power and life, according to conspiracy theorists.

Theorists say that proof that the “Dendera light bulb” was made from glass comes from the fact that the artists depicted it as transparent. One can confirm that the bulb was transparent by examining the small pillar with arms supporting the “Dendera light bulb” at the broad end (see image above).

We can see in the artists’ representation of the arms an attempt to represent three-dimensional reality on the two-dimensional plane of the artist’s medium.

According to YouTube OOPArt conspiracy theorist Strange Mysteries, in a video (see above) uploaded online in 2014, the bulb is evidently three-dimensional.

Strange Mysterious explains, “You can see this arm despite the fact that it’s on the other side of the bulb? That means the bulb is transparent! These are important facts.”

The narrower end of the “light bulb” where a human figure stands shows a cable that runs from the “socket of the bulb” to an enigmatic box (see below). The box, according to conspiracy theorists, is the power source where the electrical system is plugged into. The box is a power generator or a battery that serves as the source of power that lights the “bulb,” according to conspiracy theorists.

The pillar with raised arms that supports the bulb is an insulator. The figures kneeling and facing each other along the length of the cord are symbols of the concept of the polarity of charges which underlies the design of electrical devices. The human figure with a baboon head standing on two feet and holding a knife (see video) is supposedly a “high voltage” warning.

“It becomes quite apparent [from the art that] the Egyptians were creating electricity somehow,” Strange Mysteries concluded.

However, mainstream Egyptologists dismiss these claims, arguing that the stone relief only depicts common symbols of Egyptian mythology. The alleged “socket,” according to mainstream historians, is a lotus flower and the “bulb” is the flower’s buds about to blossom.

According to historians, the lotus flower is a symbol of fertility and cosmic regeneration linked with the seasonal cycle of flooding of the Nile that supported agriculture in ancient Egypt. The snake or serpent within the “bulb,” according to mainstream historians, is a symbol of spiritual life and the pillar with arms supporting the “bulb” is the ceremonial Djed pillar, a stylized representation of the “backbone of Osiris,” the mythical pillars upholding the cosmos.

“The myths have nothing to say regarding light bulbs, and there is no evidence to substantiate their use from Egyptian remains or text,” a skeptic argues. “This is fairly damning as the building of huge stone monuments required the maintenance of detailed and thorough accounts, yet there is no record of any electric devices or the movement of raw materials to create them.”

But OOPArt conspiracy theorists refute mainstream historians, arguing that the striking similarity of objects depicted in the stone relief to modern electrical systems, such as the Geissler tube, Crooke’s tube, and arc lamps, was not incidental and that the ancient Egyptians artists only depicted the “electrical bulb” with a faint similarity to their sacred art motifs as a way of showing the significance of the technology to the ancient Egyptian priesthood.

Conspiracy theorists quote a part of the hieroglyphic inscriptions, interpreted, “The Lotus gives forth light of the new day,” as evidence that the lotus was used as a symbol of an electric light bulb. Conspiracy theorists also challenge historians to explain how the ancient Egyptians lit the airless dark chambers and crypts of temple complexes where they couldn’t use torches.

Conspiracy theorists note that other ancient murals and stone reliefs show evidence of extraterrestrial beings interacting with the ancient Egyptians and imparting knowledge of advanced technology. According to Strange Mysteries, the hieroglyphs and stone relief art on the wall of the Temple of Hathor in Dendera show that ancient Egyptian priests used electric light bulbs and prove that they had knowledge of electrical technology 4,000 years ago.

YouTube OOPArt theorists claim that evidence from the walls of the Temple of Hathor is irrefutable. The ancient Egyptians priests and scholars developed electrical technology due to the need for illumination in dark, secret temple chambers and crypts where sacred artists worked to create hieroglyphic inscriptions and art that contained spells, prayers, incantations and hymns to the gods. They couldn’t have used torches, according to out-of-place artifact theorists, because the secret chambers and crypts were dark and poorly ventilated.

“Basically, if they used torches they’d very quickly suffocate to death… whatever room they were in would be filled with smoke. Thus, there was a need of an alternative light source in places that would have been impossible to light with a torch or the sun. Otherwise, many drawings or hieroglyphs wouldn’t be where they are now,” Strange Mysteries argued.

OOPArt theorists also argue that had the priests used torches in the poorly ventilated subterranean chambers there would be evidence of soot on the tomb walls, but archaeologists have found none.

However, some skeptics suggested that the ancient Egyptians may have used a system of reflective mirrors to light the dark tombs. But OOPart theorists point out that some ancient Egyptian texts contain references to “high poles covered with copper plates” as evidence that the ancient Egyptian priesthood had learned how to generate and use electricity to light secret temple chambers and airless tombs.

Mainstream historians dismiss claims that the “high poles covered with copper plates” were electrical installations, saying that they were used for magical purposes. But the suggestion has elicited jeers of derision from conspiracy theorists, who claim that the notion that copper plated high poles were magical is a forced argument.

“What I don’t understand is how they learned to do such a thing,” Strange Mysteries commented. “Did they figure it out on their own? Did beings from another planet teach them? Just what really happened in ancient Egypt?”

Many OOPArt theorists believe that the ancient Egyptians acquired knowledge of advanced technology from alien visitors or from time travelers.

UFO blogger Scott Waring subscribes to the alien theory.

“I understand why an alien may want to work in a temple,” he comments. “If the alien or aliens worked in a temple they would have the power to read people’s minds and make their prayers answered. This would make the temple famous fast, but would also help the locals. This species that did this seem to care about humans a lot. That is a good thing to know, but what species were they, and where were they from?”
