The condition of the canopic jars is really amazing. This is a great discovery for Egypt, and I hope it continues to shed light on the practices and behaviors of their time.
It's funny how the fear of disturbing the dead seems to fade when you talk about disturbing the resting place of someone who passed a thousand years ago as opposed to a hundred. However, it's good that they do because it will shed light on the practices of religion, social consciousness, and science. I have no doubt, that if the planet is still here 1,000 years from now, they'll be unearthing graveyards all over the world to learn what we're all doing right now.
A GREAT DISCOVERY FOR EGYPT
