The noble aristocracy of Europe did indeed develop something of an appetite (at least, from a medicinal point of view) for the flesh of Egyptian mummies. And nibbling on the deceased body parts of some ancient Egyptian whose name they probably couldn’t even pronounce was indeed something all the cool kids were doing. Well, assuming you had a headache, or an infection, or a life threatening disease… or maybe you were just trying to fit it? In any case, a well-off European might not have worried, because it was nothing a little powdered skull couldn’t fix.

But what was it that would drive these ‘paragons of western society’ to indulge in what was effectively cannibalism?

  1. Sources ? I'm trying to do a comics about this phenomenon and I NEED tangible proof and Sources, the informations you are saying are important but however I can't seem to find any articles with that much details

  2. Asphalt, mummy bits, or nasty mummy wrappings. I’ve always thought it’s easy for people nowadays to think of people in the distant past as uneducated or dumb, but generally they were just like us. They possessed intelligence, had hopes and dreams and fears just like us. But then I see something like this, and all I can do is grimace and shake my head. I know people do crazy stuff now too, but eating ancient dead people? No thank you!!
