A Messy Operation

At last we fitted in our mummification, just before camp. Thank you, 7F, for putting off your immunisations until the end of the period. I’ll bring in more photos to show you tomorrow – kindly taken by Audree. (I still need to receive more permission forms before I can publish photos here.)

 DanielDaniel anoints the mummy with oil to make it look more lifelike after it had been dried out by salt.

 Tina 2Tina sews up the mummy – a tricky task. Check out her powerpoint, which is even better than her embroidery!

These two powerpoints knocked me off my correction chair in my tiny study. They were brilliant, startling, quirky, creative, knowledgeable… Have a look and you’ll see what I mean.

In Tina’s story there is an interview with Nefertiti and also with the common people who are not to be forgotten.
