In 1935, an archaeological expedition led by the Metropolitan Museum of New York unearthed a fascinating and eerie find in the tombs of Deir Elbahari near Luxor, Egypt. Beneath the tomb of Senmut, a prominent architect and possible lover of Queen Hatshepsut, archaeologists discovered a separate burial chamber containing the mummified remains of an elderly woman. Her mouth was agape, frozen in what appeared to be a scream, earning her the nickname the "Screaming Woman." For decades, this mummy has captivated researchers, and recent studies using advanced scientific techniques have provided new insights into her life, death, and the mysterious expression she carried to the grave. The findings have just been published in the science journal Frontiers in Medicine.
