A Mummy speaks first time ever || Science

Nesyamun

Nesyamun, also known as The Leeds Mummy is an Egyptian mummy from around 1100 BC held at Leeds city museum.

Nesyamun was a well known Egyptian priest who lived on earth about 3000 years ago. One day when Nesyamun died he was ritually mummified and sealed in a coffin. 3000 years later scientists found his mummy and Nesyamun very well preserved.

Nesyamun's CT scan showed that much of his throat had remained intact and his vocal tract is in a good shape. 

Scientists printed 3-d model of his vocal tract and attached it to a loudspeaker.

In future researchers are hooping that... they can use computer models to create full sentences.
