Mummy! Mummy! By: Jon Cope
Summary:
Recently, a sarcophagus was dug up in Egypt with an actual mummy inside! According to archaeologists, the mummy is 3600 years old, and dates back to 1600 BCE! The sarcophagus was engraved with the mummy's title, but they haven't yet succeeded at figuring out who he is.
Analysis:
This is actually pretty interesting. if they are able to identify who he is, this could be a major aspect of history! This will also help scientists better understand preservation.
