unwrapped male mummy of Djed-Khonsu-iu-ankh (human remains)
A human male mummified adult (unwrapped). The man was called Djed-Khonsu-iu-ankh. Most of the bandages are missing and his stomach has caved in. The stomach cavity was filled with mud, the skin is broken off in places. The chest cavity has collapsed. The neck shows wrinkles where the bandages squeezed the flesh. The head is angled back, with the mouth open. The fingers were individually wrapped. The mummified body has been unwrapped, though the last layers of bandages remain in places where they were stuck with resin. The feet were broken off and not unwrapped: they lie at the bottom of the case.
The tissue is smooth and very dark. The body was damaged (? post-unwrapping) around the stomach and hips, and the pelvic bone is partially visible.
Old fragments of glass were discovered amongst the bandaging (from time of unwrapping?) (15/04/2008).
