  I saw the word dead and knew this would be my kind of subject! I must admit I am fascinated by mummies and only last week was at the British Museum to see some long lost 'friends' there. Part of me thinks they should be buried but another part of me thinks that the knowledge we have learned from these mummies is invaluable. Actually I think that the mummy I photographed below looks very content where he is.
  
  I have read about Rosalia Lombardo, she is known as an Incorruptible (a perfectly preserved body which appears not to have deteriorated in any way.) Some religions class these people as 'Saints'.
  
  

  

  
  
  I like this site about the Capuchin Monk Mummies: http://motomom.tripod.com/index-3.html
