Apparently this tomb dating to the New Kingdom belonged to a goldsmith dedicated to the god Amen aptly named Amenemhat who was buried with his wife and two children.

^ Uh, this news belongs in the EGYPTOLOGY section NOT the Deshret section which is for off-topic b.s.!!

^ You think they'll test these remains for DNA?? Funny how the late period Abusir mummies are being held up as the end-all be-all representatives of ancient Egyptian people.

^lol doubt it. Abusir mummies were tested because they weren't in Egypt.

^ What do you mean? Abusir el Malek is in Egypt. Unless you don't consider middle Egypt to be Egyptian.

No... I mean the mummies tested were in a German museum[iirc] and NOT in an Egyptian museum. In Egypt the Egyptology field has made a ban against genetic testings for obvious reasons.

Krause turned to a collection of 151 mummy heads from the ancient settlement of Abusir el-Meleq, about 100 kilometers south of Cairo along the Nile. The settlement was devoted to Osiris, the god of the dead, making it a popular burial spot for many centuries. The heads were excavated (and removed from their bodies) in the early 20th century and now reside in two collections in Germany,

You are such a double speaking clown. First, There may be 100's if not 1000's of AEians mummies inside and outside Egypt. Second the Abusir mummies wasn't the first time data was piked and sampling skewed to get an "apparent" Eurocentric result. Remember the fake R1b Tut results. Third, The mtDNA Haplogroups are as expected in that part of Africa for indigenous Africans. The ONLY unexpected result was the lack of mtDNA L which is very suspect and smells of tampering keeping in mind mtDNA L found in Neolithic Levant and Iberia with far fewer samples. The results were doctered,

Where is the data which establishes mtDNA L as something to be expected?

LOL YOU are the only clown around here, gramps! Exactly how did I double speak?? Do you even know what that means?? LOL -------------------------------------------------- Without a proper understanding of data you are just another ignoramus with more to say.
