This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Fun fact: the reason mummified Egyptian remains are so rare is because eating mummy legit used to be a practice in traditional medicine.

Didn't they also used to make paint out of them? 'Mummy Brown' was a popular thing or smthn.

Yes! I believe it was actually called Mummy Brown! Watched a video about it on YouTube I think within the last year, I think the Smithsonian or someone still has an archived sample of the pigment.
