The first evidence for iron smelting in ancient Egypt appears in the archaeological record in the sixth century bc. Only a handful of iron artefacts have been discovered in the region from before then: all come from high-status graves such as that of the pharaoh Tutankhamun.
Heh. One of *those* topics.

I am guessing that the iron dagger buried with Tutankhamun was a gift from the Hittites.
