The article doesn't say what evidence, if any, leads to the conclusion that they have found the real mummy of Hatshepsut.

This subject interests me because I once got into an argument with a relative about whether this mummy had been found. I had read a popular book on archaeology that had an illustration purporting to show the mummy of Hatshepsut.

It turned out that it was highly questionable that the mummy in the illustration was indeed Hatshepsut and I had to admit I was wrong.

Zahi Hawas is such a media hog, that the "discovery" of this mummy at the same time there is an Hatshepsut exhibition is cause for suspicion.

Wow, I wish I had relatives who cared about anything beyond their personal lives and what's on telly. Lucky you.
