Qurna Queen

The Qurna Queen ( 1570 BC - 1550 BC) The quality of the grave goods and the location of the burial have been used to argue that the inhabitant of the grave was a member of the royal family. If this is the case, it would mean that the site's mummies, coffins, and grave goods would make up the only complete royal burial exported from Egypt in its entirety.

The mummification process failed to preserve any soft tissue and only the woman's skeleton remains.

Shortly after the excavation the mummified woman was unwrapped. The mummified woman was transferred along with the contents of her tomb to The Royal Scottish Museum, arriving there by September 1909.

In 1969, the coffin was subject to restoration with gaps being filled with Fibrenyle dough.
