A team of Spanish archaeologists recently discovered a significant amount of embalming materials for the Vizier Ipi of Egypt’s 12th Dynasty of the Middle Kingdom—dating back around 4,000 years.
They’ve found urns, shrouds and bandages, oils, and natron salts.
What’s more, the team found the alleged heart of Ipi, who was the overseer of Thebes and an elite in King Amenemhat I’s court, according to El Mundo, a Spanish news outlet, and state-run news outlet Ahram Online.
