Problems/Questions
Problem; I don't know about this being a mummy, it's an assortment of long bones and the skull is equid (donkey?, horse?) or maybe a camel, in my opinion (note gap at side of teeth and presence of front teeth, that's the dental configuration for a horse, etc, definitely not a cow) -- DVF
