Why Did This Ancient Egyptian Mummy Have Her Throat Removed?

Dr Joann Fletcher is on a mission, she and the Mummy Investigation Team at York University have been called in to look at a mysterious case – a female mummy inside a beautifully painted Egyptian coffin. There’s only one catch, they’re not allowed to open the coffin. In one of the teams’ most unusual cases they must solve the mystery of this woman’s demise without ever having access to her mummy. Using everything in their power the investigation combines Xray and CT scans with facial reconstruction and facial modelling to discover who this woman was and how she died. But none of them is prepared for the grizzly tale they eventually unravel. Odyssey is your journey into the world of Ancient History; from the dawn of Mesopotamia to the fall of Rome.
