A survey of modern-era field Egyptologists reveals a very high incidence of unusual deaths consistent with symptoms of haematopoietic cancer, a scenario that parallels radiation sickness caused by exposure to abnormally high radiation previously reported in ancient tombs. However, the high radiation in tombs is not explained by the ‘natural’ background, which is rare in limestone bedrock. Here, re-examination of Egyptian funerary literature reveals reference to saffron cake in portions of 2-3-5 (yellowcake U-235), giving power by means of an invisible ‘efflux’, and leaving a legacy of hazardous ‘excrements’ (wastes) which were buried in an underground ‘tomb’ called the per D’jet (house of millions of years). The ancient curse warned that those who break this tomb shall meet death by a disease that no doctor can diagnose.
