Damage to the wooden coffins and linen wrappings in the tomb is thought to have occurred during ancient floods.

I just watched The Mummy with Karloff the other night. Amazing they found this tomb now. Ancient Egypt keeps arising from tombs, beads and the wrappings of mummies. She doesn’t want to die.
