Engaging mummy mystery unravels at Niagara Falls museum
Author: Ted Mahar Source: The Oregonian
Title: Engaging mummy mystery unravels at Niagara Falls museum
Amazing but true - An ancient curiosity draws just the right set of eyes, which leads to a surprising identification
"The Mummy Who Would Be King" is a clever title that sets the tone for an engaging "Nova" documentary that mixes history, drama, comedy and a dash of farce.
It also illustrates the absurdly dominating role simple coincidence can play in both history and the discovery of history.
The title mummy's almost-certain identity is kept from the viewer until late in the show, but if you saw the news a few years ago, you know. The mummy that is probably Rameses I was identified and returned to its rightful place in Egypt.
