I've been pretty interested in the idea of mummies and mummification. After our last class, my interest grew so I decided to look up some videos that relate.
The first one is about the process of Mummification in a present day context.
The second video is about the aftermath of doing a mummification on a present day individual.
Mummification is an intense process that has dated back to ancient Egypt. It was process used to preserve bodies throughout time. Even though some attempts failed, many were successful which allowed scientists to learn more about it.
Would you want to be mummified?
I watched the program on the modern mummy a while back. It amazed me exactly how much effort is put into making a mummy, even with modern technology.
