for a mummy that showed up on tv and documentary. don´t you are thinking too much?. ramses ii mummy got a passport to be saved from his poor condition.

Egypt required anyone leaving the country, living or dead, to have the proper papers. Ramses II was issued a passport. Seemingly the first mummy to receive one, Ramses had his occupation listed as “King (deceased).”

It was his poor condition that prompted Egyptian authorities to seek help preserving him in the mid-1970s. They found their experts in France and reluctantly decided to transport the 3,000-year-old mummy to Paris.

I thought that would be a good curiosity, but if my post offends you, I can delete it without problem. the last thing I wanted was to cause discomfort in someone.
