Horemkenesi was an Egyptian priest and official who lived at Thebes in the eleventh century B.C. The unwrapping and scientific examination of his mummified body (the last such investigation to have been carried out in Britain) provided a rare opportunity to study the remains of a known historical figure using the most sophisticated technology and methods of analysis. By combining the results of this study with information from inscriptions on Horemkenesi's coffin and rock-graffiti recording his work in the cemeteries of Thebes it is possible to build up a fascinating picture of the life, death and mummification of an ancient Egyptian. The first part of this stimulating book considers Horemkenesi's life and work against the backdrop of Upper Egypt in the troubled times of the early Twenty-First Dynasty. The second part concentrates on the unwrapping of the mummy: its careful planning, how the delicate operation was carried out and what discoveries were made.
