Mummy Forensics: The Pierced Skull (2011x3)

: 11, 2011

When the Mummy Investigation Team is called out to look at the body of a South American mummy on display in a mansion museum, they believe they are onto their easiest case yet. The mummy has a number of visible wounds and, alarmingly, a large hole in its skull. But the team must set aside their preconceptions that this man was the victim of a foul crime, and allow forensic science to take its course. In their most active investigation yet, it’s field archaeology and old fashioned detective work which ultimately provide the keys to cracking this case.
