She was among the first mummies to be scientifically investigated, with an account of her examination by Augustus Granville published in 1825. He deduced her cause of death to be ovarian cancer (now thought to be a benign tumor). A reexamination published in 2009 suggests she died of tuberculosis, having found extensive evidence of the bacterium in lung tissue and bone samples. [13]

MinirdisUn­knownUn­knownPtolemaicMale c. 1875Minirdis was the son of Inaros, a stolist-priest of Min. He died between the ages of 12 and 14 of an unknown cause approximately 2300 years ago. His coffined body was found at Akhmim in the late 1800s and transported to the Chicago Field Museum in the 1920s. The coffin was opened in 2014 and revealed that his body had slid around inside it, detaching his feet and damaging his legs and cartonnage mask. Restoration work was carried out with the aim of placing him on display in a touring exhibition. [17] [18] [19]
NebiriChief of stablesUn­known18thMale 1904Nebiri was an official during the reign of Thutmose III. He was buried in QV30 which was excavated by Ernesto Schiaparelli in 1904. The robbed tomb preserved only Nebiri's mummified head and a single canopic jar containing his lungs. Studies have revealed he died between 45 and 60 years old of heart failure. [20] [21]
Nefrina Commoner c. 275 BCPtolemaicFemale 1930Nefrina was from the town of Akhmim. Her cause of death may have been complications of a broken hip. Her father, Irethourrou, and mother, Irty-rou, were both involved in the cult of the god Min. [22] Her mummy has been on display in the Reading Public Museum in Reading, Pennsylvania since 1930. [23]

PadihershefStone masonUn­known25thMale Before 1823Padihershef originates from Thebes and died between 20 and 30 years old. One side of his body shows signs that decomposition started before mummification took place. He bore a title conventionally translated as "stone mason" but he was likely a "sepulchral prospector" who looked for areas to cut new tombs in the Theban necropolis. Padihershef was the first complete Egyptian mummy imported into the United States. He was presented by Jacob van Lennep to Massachusetts General Hospital in 1823 and was investigated by John Collins Warren the same year. He was X-rayed in the 1930s and 1970s and CT scanned in 2013. This revealed that his unwrapped head was reattached with the aid of a stick. [27] [28]

Mummy (AM 1986.135-2).jpg Souser-iret-binetUn­known 850-575 BC22nd-26thFemale 1880sSouser-iret-binet [30] likely originates from Gaston Maspero's excavations in the mid-1880s at Akhmim, Upper Egypt. She was known as Ta-sedgemet but the partial name "Souser" appears on inscriptions on her coffin. [31] She was at 27–35 years old at death and unwell. She had non-Hodgkin lymphoma and enlarged sinuses suggesting a flu-like illness, in addition to poor dental health. She was obtained for the Canterbury Museum, Christchurch along with another mummy, Tash-pen-Khonsu, in 1888; in 1957 she was transferred to the Auckland War Memorial Museum in Auckland where her mummy is on display. [32] [33]
TabasetyPriestess 1301-1035 BC20th/21stFemale Before 1940Tabasety was a Theban priestess who bore the titles "chantress of Amun" and "lady of the house". Based on the style of her coffin set, she lived during the Twentieth or Twenty-first Dynasties. She fractured her pelvis as a child. The injury never fully healed, which would have caused chronic, disabling pain. She died aged 40-60 years. Her organs were not removed during mummification and her body is largely skeletonised. In the 1940s, her body and coffin were purchased by Ivan Lystager and donated to Aarhus University in Aarhus, Denmark in 1950. [34]
Takabuti.JPG Takabuti Lady of the houseUn­known25thFemale Before 1835The mummy and coffin of Takabuti have been housed in the Ulster Museum in Belfast, Northern Ireland since at least 1835, when she was unwrapped. She died in her late 20s, likely from a stab wound. [35]
Ta-Kr-Hb Priestess 760-525 BC25-26thFemale Before 1896
Coffin and mummy of Tashpenkhonsu 02.jpg Tash pen KhonsuPriestess c.185 BCPtolemaicFemaleUn­knownTash pen Khonsu's mummy was purchased in 1887 from Frederick George Hilton Price for the Canterbury Museum, Christchurch. She came from Akhmim, Upper Egypt and was involved in the cult of Amun. She died aged about 25. She appears to have been placed in a recycled coffin, as textile from the coffin lining was dated to 485 BC – a discrepancy of 300 years. [36]
TayesmutengebtiuChantress of Amun c. 900 BC22ndFemale 1850s-1880sTayesmutengebtiu, also known as Tamut, was a priestess of Amun. Based on the wear on her teeth she was at least 30 years old at the time of her death and has an estimated height of 157 centimetres (5.15 ft). CT-scanning has revealed her mummy has artificial eyes of stone or glass and is equipped with many amulets, including a heart scarab, two embalming plates, wax figures of the four sons of Horus, and sheet metal amulets placed over the throat, chest, pelvis, wrists, and feet; her finger and toes are covered with metal stalls. She was probably buried at Thebes and was discovered between the 1850s and the 1880s in excavations by either Raymond Sabatier, Auguste Mariette, or V. G. Maunier and was purchased by the British Museum in 1890. [37]

TjayasetimuTemple singer 400 BC 28th Female Before 1887Tjayasetimu was a "singer of the interior" likely of the god Amun; such singers were often daughters of the elite. CT-scanning has revealed she died around the age of seven and has shoulder length hair arranged on the sides and back of her head. Her mummified body was placed in a decorated cartonnage coffin depicting her as an adult woman. Dark liquid was poured over the entire front of the coffin which obscured much of the decoration; cleaning carried out in 1975 allowed the inscription to be read. Her mummy was purchased by E. A. Wallis Budge in 1887 for the British Museum. He assumed she originated from Thebes, the home of the largest temple to Amun, Karnak, but John H. Taylor and Daniel Antoine suggest she may be from El Hiba in northern Egypt. [38]
