As old as Egypt is, I imagine it is difficult to dig anywhere without digging up a mummy...............

60 mummies? Hey, I have an idea for a Sunday night Egyptology TV show.
To: Red Badger
Recall reading of massive cemeteries, drifts of mummies - many used to fuel early railroad locomotives as the flammable resins provided some goodly BTU’s. You only read about the mummies of the elite - the working classes were wrapped and stacked like cordwood. And then used like cordwood.

A lot of weird things were done with mummies by the West when we discovered Egypt. Lots of wonder elixers included Mummy dust.

Those Spanish Egyptologists need to take precautions; lest they forget the curse of Pharaoh Tutankamun.
As legend has it, there is an ancient curse associated with the mummies and the tombs of the Egyptian pharaohs.
Disturbing these embalmed remains has been said to bring bad luck, illness and death!

Noticed that the Spaniard led mission is displaying the contents in the Luxor Museum. I guess what happens in Egypt, stays in Egypt these days.
