Royal Mummy of Ramesses II, detail
The mummy of Ramesses II was among those found in the royal cache (DB320) at Deir el-Bahari, West Thebes. It was completely covered with linen bandages that bear the king’s name and epithets in Hieratic script.
The mummy has silky hair, which was white at the time of death, but has yellowed from the preservative chemicals. His nostrils were filled with resin and seeds, perhaps to better hold their shape. Now in the Royal Mummies Hall, Egyptian Museum, Cairo. JE 26214
