It’s interesting that the remains had been given the mummy treatment.
It’s understandable that the church doesn’t want to look like a bunch of nimrods with a phony religious relic.

Chugg has certainly gotten some attention over the years; the funerary casing measurement study apparently persuaded the british museum to modify the language on nectanebo II’s sarcophagus.
