Egyptian Mummy

Product Description: This 6cm tall Egyptian Mummy is made from resin that is hand painted. It is supplied with a full-colour information card that has an image of an Egyptian funeral scene on the front. On the reverse is historical information which explains about mummification. The mummy and card are supplied in a clear box.

Information: Coffins in Egyptian times were highly decorated with inscriptions and representations of gods, like Anubis, who would protect the dead person on the journey to the next world. The body would be mummified before it was placed into the wooden coffin, as it had to be preserved for it to enjoy the afterlife.
