Abstract
A summary of the resource.
In Egypt from the Pre-Dynastic period in the 4th millenium BC until the 1st millenium AD it was normal for bodies to be mummified before burial, to accord with beliefs about the well-being of the deceased after death. The technique was developed from early desiccation and wrapping to more elaborate embalming procedures and removal of the viscera, accompanied by the development of coffins of decorated wood and, later, cartonnage. This is a mummy of a female child of about 9or 10 years. The body has been wrapped in brown hemp which are coated on one side with rye starch. An X-ray shows a payrus scroll had been placed on her chest. The mummy case is made of cartonnage, a moulded mixture of plaster and linen, and is in two pieces, a bottom and a lid. It has been elaborately gilded and painted in pink, green, red, brown and black. The bottom has a depiction of the god of the underworld, Osiris, who is regularly shown as a mummified king. The top is a realistic depiction of a miniature adult woman dressed in festal costume, with an elaborate headdress, made-up face, particularly the eyes, a coloured robe and exposed breasts. The mummy and its case date from the Ptolomaic period, the period of the Roman occupation of Egypt, about 50-150 AD.

The technique was developed from early desiccation and wrapping to more elaborate embalming procedures and removal of the viscera, accompanied by the development of coffins of decorated wood and, later, cartonnage a moulded mixture of linen and plaster. This female mummy, shown by X-ray to be between 24 and 30 years old. It also shows that her arms are crossed over her chest. She is named as Thesaberu. The case is made of sycamore wood and plaster , inscribed and painted in white, green and red and yellow with stripes figures and hieroglyphs, in a pattern that gives a banded appearance to the coffin body. The face and hair are shown in a stylized manner, the face is painted in a dramatic contrast in red/brown with white eyes outlined in black. The mummy is wrapped in brown linen and a net of tubular turquoise and white round faience beads was laid over the chest of the wrapped mummy. The mummy and coffin date from the period of Greek rule in Egypt, the Ptolemaic period, about 300-40 BC. There is a record in the catalogue of other tomb furniture with this mummy, a figure of Nephthys, four canopic jars, a figure of Ptah-Sokar-Osiris, a box containing ushabti figures and a figure of Isis. It is not stated whether these were found together. See also 22115.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
1821. A fine Egyptian mummy presented by Sir C Forbes. The mummy has a double coffin, & came from Cosseir to Bombay, & thence to England.
This inner mummy case of the Ptolemaic period enclosed the mummy of an adult female of middle to old age. She is known to be named Ta-khar, the daughter of Tha-en-meh(?). The mummy is wrapped in brown linen. Mummy cloths of linen(?) decorated with turquoise and white painted designs were laid on the chest and on her side. The X-ray of the mummy shows most of her teeth are missing and there is arthritic growth on the spine, both indicating her advanced age. The viscera appear to have been removed and put in a package placed between the legs. The mummified body in its inner case was originally enclosed in a mummiform outer coffin of sycamore wood. Both coffins are decorated with figures, hieroglyphs and friezes of coloured rectangles. The paint is red, green, black and white. The raised face and hair have been depicted and painted in a stylized way. The mummy and coffins date from the Ptolemaic period between 300BC and 150AD, when there was Greek and Roman rule in Egypt. The age of the deceased is not evident from her depiction on the coffin.
