‘Egyptian Mummy’ Discovered in German Boy’s Attic

A German boy has discovered an Egyptian mummy in an old wooden chest in his grandmother’s attic.

All the way to Northern Germany, a 10 year old boy, Alexander was searching around his grandmother’s flat when he discovered the mystery. It was an old wooden chest with a mummy inside covered in bandage.

Apparently, the boy’s father, Lutz Wolfgang Kettler, stated that his father had acquired a chest while traveling in North Africa in the 1950s and had it shipped back to Germany. The chest was never spoken about ever since.

It appears that, “Mummy unwrapping parties” were popular among certain elements of German high society in the 1950s, he said.

Experts are still investigating whether the “mummy” is a replica or something entirely different.
