If they find their tomb it will be quite amazing. If the tombs have not been robbed, even more so. Given the circumstances of their deaths, I wonder what kind of burial or gravegoods they were given.

If they find the mummies intact, would this be the first corpse-ID of a major figure in the late roman republic?

Off-topic, IIRC Seutonius wrote that Caligula actually opened Alexander’s tomb in egypt, looked at the corpse (or said he did), and stole the shield he was buried with, which he then carried around for some time. AFAIK, this tomb no longer exists or has never been found, not sure which.
