Définition

  • The word mummy is derived from the Persian mumeia, referring to the bitumen material that covered the Egyptian corpse. Thousands of Egyptian mummies have been excavated, hundreds of thousands have been lost to mummy exportation and modern urban sprawl; perhaps millions more remain in the tombs and shifting sands of Egypt.
