Egypt
Mummy of Hatshepsut - Discussion
I don't usually post comments that are posted in any of the forums, because they become so easily lost both in time and space, but this one on the Egypt Dreams web forum may be of interest to visitors (and thanks to Kat Newkirk for bringing it to my atttention).
Donald Ryan discusses some of the evidence with respect to the identification of the mummy of Hatshepsut. Donald Ryan ( Donald P. Ryan, Ph.D., Division of Humanities, Pacific Lutheran University) rediscovered and documented KV 60 in the Valley of the Kings in 1989, and here he offers some clarifications on the discussion that has been taking place on that forum, including some history and the current state of play. His post is currently third from the bottom of the page.
