[HistoryLover1550]

Salim Ikram's one of my fave Egyptologists! This is very interesting. As a kid i used to "mummify" little toy animals and action figures of mine lol I was a Ancient Egypt lover then and to this day :)

i hope someone kills them and redig there body to put them on display,fucking beasts would only do sum shit like that lmao...

[AmeliasDeathmetal]

They rip the internal organs out from your nostrils. They used a piping hot poker like off the and that's how they rip out your brain :) I'm obsessed with Egypt. I was born knowing naturally a lot about Egypt. Too bad I don't like there lol.

Ever since I started mummifying my pets, Salima has been my hero!

[Jakez98]

Can you even imagine taking out human's internal organs just to mummify it?

I think I would faint first!!!

[MultiStacy123]

Did u guys kill that rabbits? or were they dead because of natural causes??

Thay a from the lokale meat market. ;-)

@MultiStacy123 there lab rabits, just like lab mice, there very cheep and provide better better answers then the mice in this case. Don't worry they would kill the animal peacefully not like stabbing it to death. Just a simple dosage of a sort im thinking morphine would do it.

I think it's so cute how they mummified all kinds of animals...fish mummies!

[hackneysaregreat]

Why do you never hear anyting about horse mummies or even horse remains from pharaonic times?

I tried to research this over a longer period, but no result whatsoever.
