Earthly remains

"The preserved remains of other human beings hold a special fascination for the living. Earthly Remains explores the history and science behind such phenomena and examines cases ranging from ancient Egyptian mummies to twentieth-century politicians, from Iron Age bog bodies to the extraordinary finds at Pompeii." "Illustrated with the haunting images of many of the cases discussed, Earthly Remains is a compelling book that will appeal to everyone's sense of mystery in the history and origins of our ancestors."--BOOK JACKET.
