    I would love to see a video on how the support items were made, for example, the wonderful acrylic support frame under the mummy.
    I think it would be really interesting to see how it's formed, and what measures are taken to ensure it's exactness.
    Added to this, I've seen some mummies in these videos which seem to be held in place with scrunched up paper (which I'd guess isn't!).
    Anyway, please consider doing a video on the investigation assistance items, machines and techniques.

  • @lauramiller9209

    Over the centuries, mummies were removed from their crypts and their wrappings by robbers looking for treasures. Often times priests afraid of the mummies being destroyed in the process, would move royal mummies and place them in different coffins and hide them.
    The fact this mummy doesn't fit well in this coffin points to it's being moved at some time.
    Museums often put unknown mummies into coffins just to have some place to better store them

    • @christophermyers8157
      @christophermyers8157 5 лет назад +34

      Museums are really good at documenting their objects if they are doing this. No respectable museum would ever mix and match priceless artifacts, then forget the history chain of evidence. Even less likely that a priest would even touch a royal tomb as the royalty were considered gods, and the priests considered servants. If the priests(the most educated people of the day) are swapping bodies and lying about the paper trail, why would you believe it is happening any different today with modern priests and archeologists, which up until the 1850's were one and the same.

    I surmise, though I could be wrong, that the experts figured out things quicker than the documentary makes it appear.

If you're paying for an expert consult, you might as well get 6 things done instead of paying for 6 consults. I think the rejigging things to fit into a timeline for an episode is what gives it the stretched out feel

    I'm a little concerned why when examining the mummy these scientists aren't wearing masks, hair covers and sometimes even forget wearing gloves. If they're trying to preserve these ancient human remains as they claim to do then they're not doing it enough. Won't humid air from them breathing down on it cause minute changes that can collectively cause changes on its integrity? Aren't they scared of accidentally touching the mummy with uncovered hands causing unintended chemical reactions? Won't falling hair contaminate it? But what do I know? I'm not an archaeologist.

    I do wonder if the reason the mummy was in a female Egyptian's casket and had been castrated (as well as being very slim for a male) is because he identified as female. The stigma against what we now term transgenderism is quite recent, and older and ancient cultures (including Egypt) were well-known to be more accepting of gender differences. Perhaps there really does need to be more study of the casket's hieroglyphics.
