Definitely not.

You may have seen web pages referring to "large light bulbs" included in some ancient reliefs, which are actually standard symbols of the morning sunrise and nothing to do with electricity. "Seeing" modern items such as astronauts, helicopters, light bulbs and spaceships in ancient wall decorations has become fashionable among the more publicity-seeking extremist writers of today. Their aim is to gain support from gullible people with little or know knowledge of ancient Egypt.

The link below takes you to a very sensible page where the total stupidity of such claims is exposed and the real ancient Egyptian meaning of the pictures is clearly identified.
