Mystery of the 'Screaming Mummy': Archaeologists say ancient Egyptian buried with a horrifying face of anguish may be a disgraced royal who was HANGED after plottingto kill his pharaoh father 3,000 years ago
Archaeologists first discovered the Screaming Mummy at Deir El-Bahari in 1886 Was thought he was poisoned, but new studies show he may have been hanged DNA analysis suggests he may be the son of King Ramses III, who was murdered. The findings line up with texts on the plot to assassinate the pharaoh. The true identity behind a haunting expression of agony, eternalized in death, has baffled archaeologists for more than a century since a set of unusual remains were first unearthed at
the Deir El-Bahari mortuary temples in Egypt.
Experts say the so-called ‘Screaming Mummy’ was preserved in a manner never seen before – his limbs were bound in leather, and the body wrapped in sheepskin, indicating it was considered to be ‘unclean.’ And, the mouth was left agape, as if he’d been poisoned. After years of speculation, recent research suggests the remains belong to the disgraced son of King Ramses III, who plotted to kill his father and was sentenced to death by hanging.
The body was buried near royals at the famous tomb site on the west bank of the Nile, according to the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities.
