THREE feet tall? Did they chop off her legs, or is this a child?

An undated handout picture made available on 12 April 2010 by the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities shows a sarcophogus unearthed by an Egyptian archaeological mission at a site in Bahariya Oasis, Egypt. The one-metre-long gypsum sarcophogus that has been found in one of 14 recently discovered Graeco-Roman tombs dating to the third century BC, portrays a lady dressed in Roman robes and contained the mummy of woman or girl who died about 2,300 years ago. The tombs were found as a result of excavation works in an area allocated for the construction of a youth centre for Al-Hara village at Bahariya Oasis, near Bawiti city.

A mummy in Egypt? All I can say is WOW!

What is fascinating about this sarcophagus is how life like it is. The pose is natural, and the face is smiling. The features of the face are very interesting as well as they are very European looking. This must have been a child or a young teen as I have never read of any ancient being only 3 feet tall as an adult. Note the snake head band indicative of the pagan symbol for life. What a find!
