Mummy of an Egyptian General

#history

General Osip Omphen Ferro.

The photos are of the mummy of the General and Commander who led the Egyptian army 1500 hundred years ago, “Osip Omphen Ferro”.

The general led the legions of King Thutmose III in 16 campaigns and battles, in which he won all.

When he grew old, King Thutmose III’s queen built a large palace for him next to the royal palace, and upon his death, at the age of sixty, he received a grand royal funeral.

His mummy, one of the best preserved in the world, is on display at the Niagara Falls Museum.
