The Bioarchaeology of Mummies - Kenneth C. Nystrom - Bog

Whilst there are many available books discussing mummy research, most recent field-wide reviews adopt a biomedical perspective to explore a particular mummy or collection of mummies. The Bioarchaeology of Mummies is a unique attempt at a synthetic, state-of-the-field critical analysis which considers the field from an explicitly anthropological perspective. This book provides an essential tool for skeletal bioarchaeologists that may not be familiar with the scope of mummy research, and for mummy researchers from biomedical fields that may not be as acquainted with current research trends within bioarchaeology.
