They’ve been finding bog bodies all over North Eastern Europe and in the British Isles for years. Some of them deliberate, some accidental. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Early Picts based their mummification techniques on local phenomena, like the Egyptians did. However, a Scottish Mummy would be to an Egyptian mummy what Sutton Hoo would be to a tomb in the Valley of the Kings

I seem to recall that some African tribes buried their dead in or near the home, where they worship and/or commune with their spirits for protection and advice. I think there are tribes in southeast asia that do the same or similar. Anyone have more info on this?
