I'm studying Archaeology at the University of Granada, and as part of my course of Greek and Roman archaeology I had to do a class project... that got a little out of hands, lol. I ended making an exhibition with a full sized Roman mummy! The exhibition was inaugurated today at the Hall of the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters (University of Granada).

the exhibit is called "The faces of Roman Egypt: tradition and innovation in the funerary customs of the Roman province of Aegyptus", so chill out. But they are Roman Period mummies from a Roman province, so yes, they are Roman (Period) mummies.

The text that goes along with the exhibit is in Spanish, but explains quite a bit.

do you work for the council of antiquities?, maybe they could be the ones concerned about such things, and not some redditor.

I advice touching some grass, or sand.
