"Interesting mummies, blam; I don't recall reading about them before."

Covered here in 2001.

The Curse Of The Redheaded Mummy

"They're not quite as old as the Scottish figurine, though (4500 to 5000 years old): "

Yup. Not as old...I was astonished about their location. The author of the book, The Mummies Of Urumchi, Elizabeth Barber is a fabric expert and she said that the weave, mfg techniques, ect were exactly like those used in Scotland.
