<p>The integration of artificial intelligence and deepfake technologies into cultural heritage presentation has introduced new forms of engagement with ancient civilizations. In Egypt, recent projects have employed AI-generated animations to simulate speech, facial expressions, and movements in iconic pharaonic statues and figures, such as Ramses II and Cleopatra. While these initiatives often aim to revive historical interest and stimulate tourism, they raise urgent ethical and cultural concerns. This paper explores the negative implications of the AI-powered awakening of pharaonic symbols using deepfake techniques. Through an interdisciplinary lens combining cultural ethics, AI governance, and digital anthropology, we argue that such practices risk distorting historical authenticity, offending religious and cultural sensitivities, and promoting digital colonialism. The paper presents a national survey of 600 Egyptian citizens, revealing widespread unease and ethical objection to the practice. We also analyze global case studies, media usage, and public backlash to assess how these technologies reshape historical narratives. Our recommendations propose ethical frameworks, regulatory pathways, and culturally respectful design practices to ensure AI respects sacred heritage in digitally mediated environments.</p>
