Three-hundred-year-old mummies that were discovered underneath a church in Hungary got an autopsy in California.

“The mother looks really intact, top to bottom, and the baby, it has some minor disruption, separated bones,” Sutherland said.

“We never really know what we’re going to find. We’re kind of unwrapping a surprise package,” Sutherland said. The mother appeared to have died from tuberculosis, he said, but the scans will reveal more.
