Further evidence to confirm the ‘pregnant mummy’: A reply to Saleem (2021)

Abstract

Prof. Sahar N. Saleem (2021) in a discussion with Ejsmond et al., “Pregnant Mummy” (2021), provides several points undermining the interpretation of the feature within the pelvic cavity of the 1st century BCE mummy as a fetus. The discussion and feedback present an opportunity to provide more evidence of the discovery made by the Warsaw Mummy Project. The current paper extends clarifications and provides further evidence proving that there is a fetus inside the pelvic cavity of the mummy.
