Mummy of a grown up female of about 65 years old. It has a linen shroud covering completely the bandaging. According to the x ray, she shows the common sickliness of her age, such as arteriosclerosis, missing dental pieces, arthritis and calcification of cartilages. She lived in the Ptolemaic period, taking over a sarcophagus of the New Kingdom, with which she came into the Museum.
