UNDER WRAPS: An Autopsy of Three Egyptian Mummies A Production of Astarte Resources                                                                                                                                            A priest from Thebes, a temple cult-singer and a twelve year old girl, all ancient Egyptians who died over two thousand years ago, recently became the focus of a fascinating study. In an unusual autopsy, these mummies were placed under the scrutiny of modern science to uncover information about their lifestyles – and what may have caused them to die.   UNDER WRAPS follows the progress of this examination as archaeologists, surgeons and scientists work together at Sydney University’s Nicholson Museum to unlock secrets that have been hidden for centuries.
