This well-preserved mummy is in the Louvre museum, and it belongs to a man who lived during the Ptolemaic period (305-30 BC). It belongs to a grown man, rich enough to be mummified at his death so carefully.

Carefully wrapped in strips of linen, especially the wrapping of the face is sophisticated. It has a concentric square design, different from the usual.

There is also a mask that covers the head, a wide necklace on the chest, an apron on the legs.
