This shroud Discovered from inside an ancient Egyptian tomb ..dated 2,000 years ago. The shroud, which was made of linen and miraculously intact, had been hand-painted with an artistic depiction of the Egyptian god of the afterlife and underworld, Osiris.
Rolled up inside the Egyptian Shroud fabric was a piece of strange brown paper. “What we found under the head were layers of the original mummy wrapping that had obviously come away when the shroud was taken off the body,” said the principal conservator.
