Hor-em-Akhet!

Never saw a mummy in person, yet. Hope to at some point.

you have to if you can... even if some bullet proof plexiglass protects you!
I have seen a few, luckily enough...
I also love Egyptology, and have been interested since a child...
the unwrapping of Horemkenesi in Bristol Museum (my hometown's) in 1981 was something that amazed and inspired  me even more!
