This specimen is distinct from other mummified relics in our collection, with its own verified DNA test results, X-ray imaging, and unique anatomical features. 

Historical Context & Origin

Region: Egypt (Late Period – Ptolemaic Dynasty, 700–200 BCE)
Material: Human tissue, resin, and linen remnants; professionally preserved and mounted
Authentication: DNA & X-ray verification by the Paleo DNA Laboratory, Lakehead University

Description
Discover one of the rarest and most scientifically authenticated antiquities from Ancient Egypt — a genuine mummified human hand, expertly preserved for over 2,000 years. This extraordinary artifact represents the pinnacle of Egyptian funerary art and spiritual ritual, linking modern science to one of history’s greatest civilizations.

The specimen exhibits exceptional anatomical integrity, including intact fingernails, preserved tendons, and fibrous tissue coated in a reddish-brown resin finish characteristic of elite mummification. Faint traces of linen wrappings and desiccated skin patterns confirm ancient embalming practices perfected during Egypt’s Late Period through the Ptolemaic dynasty.

Fully authenticated through independent DNA and X-ray analysis at the Paleo DNA Laboratory (Lakehead University), this specimen is supported by complete scientific documentation verifying its ancient origin and preservation integrity.

Exceptional Preservation & Scientific Verification

  • Verified by DNA testing and radiographic imaging

  • Residual wrapping fibers and mummification resin visible throughout

  • Anatomically complete hand showing elite-class embalming techniques
