@oberstul not sure which mummy this is, but I am almost certain it's a photo or representation of an actual royal mummy. In the background the three beheaded figures are one typical way of representing enemies - kneeling down(thus defeated), with their arms firmly tied around the elbow area to restrict ANY potential movement. Judging by the colouring they might represent the three principal neighbours recognized by ancient egyptians during the Old and Middle Kingdom.
@oberstul To name them exactly according to the egyptian sources the neighbours are Lybians to the west(not actually related to modern day people of Lybia), Kushites or Nubians to the South which represent many different african tribes and peoples. And "Asians" which relate to the ancient peoples of the Middle East. The images that are even further still in the background(kinda hard to make out) are probably another way of representing the enemies of Egypt.
They are enemies of Egypt, thus enemies of the pharaoh, who is a god, and thus enemies of the gods. Being such enemies they are "outside" the boundaries of Creation, and Harmony - they represent Chaos. As representatives of chaos they are portrayed in a chaotic manner with limbs in every directions which sometimes appear to be severed or broken to ritualy decapacitate the threat.
I love the mixture of Karl Sander' s vocals and the chanting in the background... it has a fascinating "exotic" somehow ancient beauty which is hard to describe... it's just AWESOME!
One Of The Most Epic Pieces Of Music I Have Ever Heard, When Listening To this I Can Picture the Great Pyramids of Giza being build by thousands of Slaves and the Mighty Egyptian Empire at it's height Of Reign over the Entire Universe.

Humming "Ia, Ia Namtaru, Ia, Ia Lammia..." in a public place may not look or sound very cool but goddamnit, I did it anyway.

I want this song played as I sit back, fanned by my servants. Whilst watching 1,000,000 Hebrew slaves construct my tomb/Tiki Bar.
