Archeologists at sydney university were shocked to discover that there was a mummy in a coffin that was thought to be empty for the last 150 years. They used the latest technology to find out that there was a mummy in the coffin.Researchers were suprised to find a mummy that had been stored in the coffin for 2,500 years. Lead researchers Dr. Jamie fraser said that the team will have to investigate who was the person that was buried inside of the coffin 2,500 years ago.

The person doesn't resemble the traditional look of a mummy.Because of the amount of time that has passed,the mummy hasn't been preserved well. The remains were heavily disturbed inside the coffin, and a photo shows that the mummy isn't whole. It shows a piece of the mummy that is believed to be it's feet.

Hieroglyphics from the coffin shows that the person that is supposed to be in there is priestess named Mer-Neith-it-es. ABC points out that some of these ancient coffins do not feature the person that was originally intended to be buried in them. Researchers used the remains to learn more about the person that was buried in the coffin.

Scans show that the remains were that of an adult person. They were able to see that the joints in the bones indicated that it is a person over the age of 30.
