The miraculous mummy of a 'polar princess' has been found close to the Arctic Circle, her long eyelashes and hair still intact after 900 years. Her haunting face and features are clearly seen after she was unwrapped by scientists from the cocoon of copper and fur in which she was buried in permafrost soil in the 12th century. Aged around 35, she was the only woman buried around almost three dozen men, and the detail onher accidentally mummified remains is astonishing. http://siberiantimes.com/science/casestudy/news/meet-the-mummified-polar-beauty-her-long-eyelashes-and-hair-still-intact-after-900-years/?comm_order=best http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/mummified-remains-polar-princess-reveal-10929395 http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-4761052/Beautiful-900-year-old-polar-princess-unravelled.html Lalasticlala, Mynd44 3 Likes 3 Shares

WHO IS THE POLAR BEAUTY? Aged around 35, she was the only woman buried around almost three dozen men, and the detail on her accidentally mummified remains is astonishing. She was a member of a mysterious medieval hunting and fishing civilisation that held sway in this polar region, but had connections to Persia. Archaeologists are puzzled why she is the only adult female found in the necropolis, and had earlier thought this was an all male burial ground. It could mean she was an elite member of her society. A small baby found in a grave nearby also probably female is not believed to be related to this middle ages mummy. Her impressive eyelashes and teeth are immaculately preserved as is her full head of hair. The green tinge on her face is from the fragments of a copper kettle apparently intended to protect her as she journeyed to the afterlife. The pieces of copper kettle had the unintended consequence of mummifying her, archaeologists believe. The mummy was dug up by archaeologists in the Zeleny Yar burial site near Salekhard, Russia, reported The Siberian Times. She was a member of a mysterious medieval hunting and fishing civilisation that held sway in this polar region, but had connections to Persia. Archaeologists are puzzled why she is the only adult female found in the necropolis, and had earlier thought this was an all male burial ground. It could mean she was an elite member of her society which lived in this cold region, although apart from several temple rings close to her skull, there was no evidence of jewellery in her tomb. While her head is well preserved, the rest of her body was not. 4 Likes 1 Share

'In the world there are two types of mummies, artificial and natural', said Professor Dong-Hoon Shin, from Seoul National University. 'Excellent examples of mummies of artificial origin are Egyptian.' The natural mummification of bodies of the buried is usually observed when certain conditions of the environment, permafrost, the presence of copper objects in the burial and climate', he said. These mummies are found in deserts and in the north. The mummy had temple rings (pictured in the scan). One earlier find from the site was a 'red haired man' buried with a bronze buckle depicting a brown bear. 6 Likes 1 Share

thump up for Explorer and Archaeologists, but how do this people (Archaeologists) find mummified body before digging it up, i don't want to believe they are just randomly digging graves and found a mummified body. |

Josephjnr: How do you want me to write all that in a sentence? It gives you an idea if how they lived. Their height, how they managed to survive, how many years they lived, how they looked, compared to now. Scars could indicate where they came from etc...Their beliefs, depending on what they wear for their "afterlife". Bone structure etc could tell if Africans, Europeans, Asians "descended" from them Oh boy and so many more ![]() 12 Likes 1 Share |

Josephjnr: Wait who is saying slavery hasn't passed? Your first sentence doesn't even make sense. Which wickedness and who is forcing an idea on you? YOU were the 1 who quoted me. Then went ahead saying what I truly found interesting and fascinating was of no use. You'd probably go on a thread, where scientists find out of sth new/ invented sth new due to their CURIOSITY, to criticise them. Yet 99% of what you are using, even your smartphone, cars etc was invented by them. You are able to call because of satellites, yet you might be one of those who'll ask how finding things about the universe is useful. Oh and drop the "victim card" of forcing my idea on you. It's pathetic 18 Likes 2 Shares |
