Postmortem changes in ancient Egyptian child mummies
Alfredo Salafia’s handwritten memoir and the embalming of Rosalia Lombardo
century, treated a number of corpses with his own preservation method. Among them was the young Rosalia Lombardo, just shy of two years old at the time of her death, whose remarkable preservation has brought her significant attention. It is well documented that Salafia had concocted a formula for a highly advanced embalming fluid which is believed to have been used to preserve Lombardo. This is referenced in a book and in two unpublished document…
On some mummy findings from the Semmelweis Museum of Medical History, Hungarian National Museum, Budapest
The permanent exhibition of the Hungarian National Museum, Semmelweis Museum of Medical History of Budapest, Hungary, displays some human remains believed to originate from ancient Egypt. Within the framework of the Nephthys Project, three objects consisting of two heads and one foot were studied via paleoimaging and archaeometric techniques in order to provide new anthropological and paleopathological data. It is argued here that even partial or…
Radiological evidence of purulent infections in ancient Egyptian child mummies
Correlation of atherosclerosis and osteoarthritis in ancient Egypt
Development of passive controlled atmosphere display cases for the conservation of cultural assets
Evidence of aortic dissection and Marfan syndrome in a mummy from the Capuchin Catacombs of Palermo, Sicily
CT checklist and scoring system for the assessment of soft tissue preservation in human mummies
Paleopathology in the Piraino mummies as illustrated by X-rays
This paper presents the first radiological investigation of a collection of Sicilian mummies held in a crypt beneath the Mother Church of Piraino, Italy. The chamber contains 26 preserved bodies of religious dignitaries, either conserved vertically in special wall niches or horizontally on wooden shelves. The majority of bodies are clothed, and transportation outside of the crypt was not feasible. Therefore assessment of the remains via paleoradi…
Complete mapping of the tattoos of the 5300-year-old Tyrolean Iceman
Parasitism of the Zweeloo Woman
Theoretical aspects of physical-chemical parameters for the correct conservation of mummies on display in museums and preserved in storage rooms
Dietary analysis of Piraino 1, Sicily, Italy
New radiological insights into the life and death of the Tyrolean Iceman
Long‐term survival of ancient DNA in Egypt
Molecular identification of human tuberculosis in recent and historic bone tissue samples
We describe the molecular identification of the M. tuberculosis complex DNA in bone tissue samples from recent and historic populations. In a first set, archival paraffin material from vertebral bodies of 12 recent cases with clinically/microbiologically proven tuberculosis was compared to 12 further cases without tuberculosis. While eight TB cases revealed a specific mycobacterial amplification product, none of the controls was positive. Interes…
