Minya Governorate

These burials predate Egyptian mummification by almost 12,000 years.

In Egypt's Minya governorate, archaeologists unearthed something strange and beautiful.

Roman-era mummies with golden tongues.

The gold was placed inside the mouths of the dead, sometimes in the form of sheets and other times as actual tongue-shaped artefacts.

Okay, so this happened in, again, 2005.

2008, three years after his death, there was a trip, a minibus taking a number of people, about 30 people, 28 people, from Minya in Minya in Upper Egypt to the monastery of St. Paul in the Red Sea.

So 28 people on a minibus, many of them related to each other, from El Minya.

They were going to Deir el Maboula in 2008, three years after the departure of Abu Nasiman, whom they knew nothing about.

On the way to the monastery, about maybe an hour or so from the monastery, they had a very terrible accident, and the minibus flipped multiple times.
