Digital Pharaohs

the ancient Egyptians wanted to be immortal, they developed several methods of mummification
because of this mummification their body's still exist in our time,more than 2000 years later
after they were unwrapped,examined and even subjected to X-ray examination and DNA research, they are now present digitally on the internet
the images shown are digital computer interpretations by Petra de Nijs, owner of this website, based on original pictures

* note: all information provided on this site is with the proviso that still a lot of information is based on the knowledge of today (or yesterday)...there are still a lot of
different theories about several mummies, also caused by grave robbery in the past...but with the newest X-Ray and DNA technology a lot of questions will be solved
