Opened and nothing happened?

In the original Mummy Movie, when they opened the coffins, different things use to crawl out,and curses were unleashed in the land.

Nothing like that happened here Explorers?

Because that one is the pirated movie. This one you're witnessing is the original one.

Stone coffin filled with sewage liquid with 3 bodies in it....evidently there is a story here. Its possible the occupants were under some kind of possession, disease or part of a sect or were buried alive as punishment. Else why bury three persons together in a sealed stone coffin. They should have left it the way it was o...as if we haven't seen enough strange things in this lifetime.
This is so wrong lol

I'm marveled at the level of technology used in creating that tomb. How were they able to lift 30tons of solid rock of stone in that time? Look at the cut in that stone, you could define precision and accuracy.

In addition, some of the obelisks in Egypt are said to weigh about 1500tons of granite.. Damn! we have lost too many knowledge.

I talk am. Curiosity will kill plenty people.

What they're calling sewage water, actually isn't.

When Egyptians bury 3 people at the same time in a single coffin, you know they committed a great crime and their spirit go dey vex.

The coffin is not like your usual Egyptian coffin.
These people took great care to create a coffin that would not only keep the bodies in it, but prevent something from escaping. How else do you explain the 'sewage water'?


You will never find a black man excavating the remains of his ancestors. For what na?

So you believe you know more about the egyptians and their culture and history more than the egyptians themselves

Guys!
Am i the only one who is noticing this or what?
Those mummies were actually people like me and you some 2000 years ago. What right does anyone have to open a casket they did not buy and bring out a body they do not own. As if that's not enough they will take the bodies and analyze it in all possible ways and eventually put it a museum to make money off it.
If this is not the height of disrespect and indecency i dont know what is. There is nothing new to find inside there so why open it.
Let's respect the dead. It could be me or you tomorrow.

Maiherpri Mummy (very dark skin with woolly hair.)

Maiherpri was buried in a Royal Egyptian Tomb in the Valley of the Kings, the royal necropolis (Egypt). The mummy was unwrapped in March 1901, revealing a very dark skin with woolly hair. In Maiherperi's tomb, a papyrus was found depicting him with literally "blackish" skin. The papyrus in question was the Book of the Dead (Picture below).

Ur d only one making sense here.......
A coffin of black granite( note the colour), sealed with mortar, and d sewage liquid indicates something isn't meant to escape (their essences,auras or spirits or some deadly plaque).

What those guys found was an elaborate ceremony about something very very serious.

Note the absence of ornaments or figurines,like the pharaohs...
I completely agree with you and Earthbound.
They were not pharaohs and possibly were not directly part of the royal linage.
Pharaohs when buried (even with their slaves - are buried outside their sarcophagus but still within the general tomb) though some have been known to be buried with cats within the sarcophagus (which ancient Egyptians may have revered). These ones were buried like prisoners.
My curiosity has been amped up by the discovery of the sewage.
2,000 year old sewage still in its original liquid form and almost filled to the brim!
Where did it come from? is it modern day sewage? why are the surrounding areas not mot with moisture from same? Or we see pipes underground that may have leaked in? How manage?
They also need to research how many times tombs of granite was used in ancient Egypt and possibly find out why.

Do you and Earthbound believe in the so called curses btw? And you Explorers? Whats your take?

Most people don't know anything


Egypt
Ethiohia
Sudan
Mali



These countries have truck loads of histories. Civilization started in those countries, only IF Africans can return to their roots and learn

As a matter of fact, I do. These things aren't heresay. They weren't buried with even one piece of gold. Egyptians bury their dead, even the poor with enough gold to pay for the boat ride which transports them to the underworld/afterlife. It may sound ridiculous but that's their faith. These mummies, were undignified in burial. It speaks volumes.

I have the feeling some rituals have be performed before opening that coffin.

Egyptians are vast in black magic than black-Africans.
You're absolutely right.

Hmmm...dealing with reality. .people referring to movies. This black granite tomb is huge... without modern tools and machinery.... today.... we would not be able to recreate such. So what technological knowledge they had at that time...2000 years ago...that we are clueless about?
Sewerage water. ..is that the best they can come up with? For one of the three to have blunt force trauma on the head suggests to me that one was killed/sacrificed. The tomb is pretty deep...so maybe it was filled with some specially treated liqui..... and the bodies cast inside?....the liquid...maybe containing some kind of flesh eating bacteria?...probably to get rid of all flesh that hosted some deadly disease/plague?...and after 2000 years the tomb now contains not much of the liquid...which is referred to as sewerage water? Hopefully.... if the reason for this unusual burial was to get rid of a plague. ....hopefully...that virus is dead. But then again.... prophecy has to be fulfilled.... will this be the spark to start the end time plagues?
They didn't go thru all that and sealing the tomb for nothing...liquid remaining in desert hot Egypt for 2000 years?...this is serious.

Les wait first.

But have thought about the liquid inside the coffin

2000years old liquid and didn't dry up

hungerbad

Miraculous! If it were in our clime the excavation site would have become one of religious homage and the liquid suddenly turned to/marketed as one with healing properties.
