[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1067585, member: 2844"]I agree. It is an amazing find.... of something that was never meant to be found.:( But at least archaelologists make records of everything. Jmo, mummies don't belong in museums, they belong in the burial chambers they were put in. At peace, no need for historians or tourists. I always hated seeing the remains of dead people in museums, why put them on show, and who are we to look at their remains and disturb dreams of eternity. If someone were to do that with the remains of our grandparents, we would feel very hurt and find it disrespectful. I am not against archaelology, not at all. But we can find out much about the past without disturbing graves. And if we come across them accidentally, like in construction sites, we can take photos and soil samples. Maybe some dna. After that, either close the grave respectfully, or move the remains to a safe burial site.[/QUOTE]
