The British Museum


The Egyptian mummies of the British Museum are from Thebes in Egypte.

One mummy is of an old woman called Katabet.

The body is preserved with layers of cloth.
On the sarcophage there is a dark scarab, which is a magic protection.

After the death the body of a person of high rank was washed and the internal organs were taken out.


Guillaume Bagnuls : "It was a super visit!"
