    In the Egypt exhibit there are probably no human mummy's because in the middle ages and up to the 1800s people would grind up mummy's to use as medicine or to make a type of paint that I think was called mummy brown.

    Def one of my fav places in this city. That’s actually not too many folks, it gets a lot worse of free museum days and during events. Those signs are especially there since we had a incident where college kids partied in the massive koi pond infront of the botanical gardens and killed all the koi and absolutely wrecked all the flowers around it. Botanical gardens were good tho ^^

      We imported mummies by the boatload to turn into fertiliser, mainly mummified cat’s and other things but it’s still a very ghoulish past. Mummies were a prescribed medicine at one time in Europe we used to grind them up. History is a very strange place to visit.

    When it came to the getting paid with beer Sigmund of the video, I don't think that the people were drunk in any way, while working, I feel, that they were drinking after work and if they were not drinking, I feel that they use the beer, for other things. I feel that the slaves have families and the beer was been used as a tool, that's what I think.
