Richmond Mummy

In a page looking 200 years of Richmond's (Indiana) history, a mummy that arrived on January 3rd 1930 is feature: "At the time of her purchase, she had never been unwrapped and was considered a work of art . . . . To see if this mummy could possibly be a daddy, she was the star of an X-ray session at Reid Hospital in late January 1974. The city had become "mummy conscious" and wanted to know more details. What was learned was that she was a very tall female in the prime of life. The coffin case was too small so she had been pushed up from the bottom, with the leg joints disconnected at the knees and overlapping. As well put together as she was, she was not completely together. Her lower jaw was missing. Also in her coffin were pouches containing her visceral parts: the liver, the lungs, and the intestines".
