Considering all the ceremonies described in the papyrus, it is surprising that there is no mention of the surgical procedures, the removal of the brain and evisceration, performed at the time of mummification. The papyrus states that during the first thirty-six days of mummification, eight ceremonies were performed, followed by an additional nine days until the seventh day, when the mummy was finally placed in its tomb. We learn that the mummy was bathed in the "Pool of Khonsu," the legs, arms, torso and back were at rest for thirty days in the "Place of Cleansing". The papyrus specifies the exact dates on which various rituals of mummification take place. Written in both hieratic and demotic, it provides interesting details of mummification. The first was prepared for Montu-Sehef, who lived in Mermothes and died at the age of 59 in 9 BC, during the first year of the reign of Emperor Augustus. The two Rind Papyri were discovered in an intact tomb of the Roman period. The Rind Papyri, discovered in 1856 by Alexander Rhind, a Scottish Lawyer, describes many details of mummification (Birch 1863). The closest we have are the few papyri that describe what happened to the mummy after the surgical procedures. The ancient Egyptians practiced mummification for more than two thousand years, but they have left us no description of the surgical procedures undertaken during embalming.

Este informe presenta los procedimientos quirúrgicos utilizados durante el proceso de momificación. Los autores intentaron replicar el sistema de momificación egipcia en un cadáver humano actual y en un trabajo anterior, los autores publicaron sus resultados sobre el uso de natron en la momificación antigua. Key words: Egypt, experimental archaeology, mortuary practices. This paper discusses the surgical procedures used in evisceration during mummification. In a previous paper, the authors reported their findings on the use of natron in ancient mummification. The authors attempted to replicate Egyptian mummification with a human cadaver.

And obsidian is here to help you do that.EGYPTIAN MUMMIFICATION Bob Brier *, Ronald S. So this is the ideal time to Marie Kondo whatever you don’t need energetically in your life. And now that we’ve dramatically scaled back our outward go-go-go lives, we now have a moment to assess what it is we really want in our lives.ĭo we really want to be tired all the time? Do we really want to have no time for ourselves? Do we really want the crazy life we had before? If you don’t want those things, it’s time to begin cutting the energy that hangs on these ideas that you can only survive or be successful if you are running on the world’s hamster wheel.
We have retreated into our homes, and back into ourselves. How the modern world works is going to be changed forever. Our way of life is going to be changed forever. This is especially important right now as we are going through quarantine. It “cuts” out energy so you can separate from it.
It is so sharp that under a microscope you would be able to visibly see how an obsidian scalpel can cut cells cleanly in half, whereas the cells cut by a steel surgical scalpel will look shredded.Įnergetically, obsidian does the same thing. This edge is 30 angstroms wide, less than half the width of a red blood cell. When cleaved so it has a knife’s edge, obsidian is one of the sharpest materials known. But each obsidian will have the same main characteristic of having an energy that can “cut” away unhelpful energies. Obsidian can exhibit different nuances in color, from being completely black, to having tinges of golden sheen, to having a web-like patterns running through it, to having an iridescent rainbow of colors move on it surface, and more. It extrudes out of her as a hot molten liquid, and as it cools it becomes the mineraloid we know as obsidian. Obsidian is volcanic glass made by Mother Earth.
