[A new studie of embalment in ancient Egypt]

The instruments of the Embalmer Priest. Studies on the practice of embalming in ancient Egypt have mostly neglected the instruments used by embalmers to make their activity easier. Only three embalmer's caches contained embalmers' instruments, but some further objects have been found in museum collections. We have created bronze reproductions of these tools which then used on a corpse at the Faculty of Medicine of Paris VII.
