Conversations with mummies

This volume introduces the subject of Egyptian mummies and the international teams who study them. The authors describe daily life at the time of the pharaohs -- from diets and dentistry to magic and medicine. Features and sidebars on recent mummy studies provide insights into everything from the family trees of the pharaohs to the hypnotic appeal of the blue lotus flower. This work also documents the work of modem researchers who attempt to re-enact the ritual of mummification in addition to mummy autopsies.
