----------------------------Original message---------------------------- I'm posting this ad along for a colleague here at the University of Cincinnati, Institute of Mediterranean Studies: UNDER WRAPS: AN AUTOPSY OF THREE EGYPTIAN MUMMIES A priest from Thebes, a temple cult-singer and a twelve year old girl, all ancient Egyptians who died over two thousand years ago, recently became the focus of a fascinating study. In a long overdue autopsy, these mummies were placed under the scrutiny of modern science to uncover information about their lifestyles - and what may have killed them. The Video 'Under Wraps' follows the progress of this examination as archaeologists, surgeons and scientists work together at Sydney University's Nicholson Museum to unlock secrets that have been hidden for centuries. Length: 30 minutes. Price: $29.95 (VHS - American format) Shipping: $4.00 - U.S.A./ $5.00 - Canada/ $7.00 - Overseas, first video; .50 for each additional. "Under Wraps" is a production of Astarte Resources and is distributed exclusively in the United States and Canada by the Institute for Mediterranean Studies. ---------------------------------------- PELLA IN JORDAN: A WINDOW TO THE PAST The site of Pella in Jordan has been continuously occupied for over 10,000 years. This largely unknown history - spanning the millennia from the present day to one of the world's earliest villages - has been unearthed by many archaeologists who have helped to peel back the pages of time. To shed light on their work, this video first visits the major ancient sites of the region before joining the archaeologists at Pella as they use an array of techniques to piece together the site's long and fascinating history. Length: 55 minutes. Price: $34.95 (VHS - American format) Shipping: $4.00 - U.S.A./ $5.00 - Canada/ $7.00 - Overseas, first video; .50 for each additional.
