But isn' it?. There are many colours of Human being Skeleton. Are these colours because of body decomposition with Soil?

It involves the washing out of the intestines, and drying the body, using natron, before anointing and wrapping it. Little to do with bone color.

In Ashmolean museum, we viewed the mummies. It's a nice museum. Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mummy Reference : Treatment of Mummies in ancient times. Do you feel there could be applications of Mummies in Medicine & Engineering ?

Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar https://medicalxpress.com/news/2010-10-scientists-cancer-purely-man-made.html Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar Title: Re: Human Being Skeleton Colour. Post by: bio_man on Jul 15, 2019 Do you feel there could be applications of Mummies in Medicine & Engineering ? There's no purpose to mummification in modern medicine. What was the purpose of mummification? The Egyptians believed that humans had several components, including your physical body (kha), name (ren), shadow (shut), heart (ib), life force (ka), soul (ba), and, for lack of a better translation, "effectiveness" (akh). In order for you to be resurrected successfully, all of these components had to be reconstituted during funeral rites. Destroy some of these elements - through cremating the body or committing damnatio memoriae on their name, for example - and you doom someone to eternal nonexistence. In fact, this is why the Egyptians greatly feared drowning, as it would prevent someone from recovering their bodies. The Egyptians had ways to work around this in case something happened to their bodies, a prudent move since tomb robbers weren't at all hesitant to hack a body to pieces to recover jewelry, amulets, or expensive linen wrappings. Reserve heads, carved images of the deceased that could be inhabited by their souls, were one method popular in the Old Kingdom. The images of the deceased carved and/or painted in his/her tomb were another fail-safe. Title: Re: Human Being Skeleton Colour. Post by: bio_man on Jul 15, 2019 Can Mummies help in creating drugs for Cancer? Impossible. Cancer is cell-deep, caused by a mutation in vital genes. Could you explain your premise though, why would you think that's possible? Title: Re: Human Being Skeleton Colour. Post by: prashantakerkar on Jul 16, 2019 Thanks.
I mean creating drugs from those mummies which were suffering from different cancer types. Those Cancer cells are studied,investigated, analysed in Microscope and then later cultivated and then from Cancer cell culture Drugs specific to Mummies cancer type ex Prostrate,Colon,Liver, Kidney etc are prepared. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_culture https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21516394/ Is this possible? Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar Title: Re: Human Being Skeleton Colour. Post by: bio_man on Jul 16, 2019 Mummy cells cannot be harvested b/c of the way they're preserved, and even if they could be, you're better-off using cells acquired from a biopsy instead. In addition, what information could you get from cancer cells anyway? Most cancer cells lack form and produce undefined proteins -- it's technically a cell growing out of control.
Lastly, it'd be next to impossible to tell the cause of death of a mummy given how they're preserved. Title: Re: Human Being Skeleton Colour. Post by: prashantakerkar on Jul 16, 2019 Thank you.

Thanks & Regards, Prashant S Akerkar Title: Re: Human Being Skeleton Colour. Post by: duddy on Jul 16, 2019 Mummy cells can't be harvested for the same reason dinosaur cells can't be harvested. The DNA is all tried up and can't be restored
