Jaipur: 2400-year-old Egyptian mummy unboxed after 130 years to save it from floods

Recently, a 2400-year-old mummy was removed from its box in a Jaipur museum after 130 years of staying in. Reportedly, the heavy rains in the Pink City on August 14 had flooded the streets everywhere.
Jaipur, which is facing the worst floods in decades, is quite inundated in rain water these days. It has been reported that rainwater entered the basement of the Albert Hall Museum, where the said mummy and other artefacts were kept. While the rain water managed to destroy the old files, antiques etc, the museum authorities quickly broke the glass box of the mummy to save it from getting destroyed. Reportedly, the mummy belongs to an Egyptian lady called Tutu, and it was found in Panopolis, an old Egyptian city. It was brought from Cairo to Rajasthan in the year 1883. It is believed to be dating back to the year 322-30 BC.
The Albert Hall Museum in Jaipur was made during the British regime in India. It is one of the worthy places to visit in the city for the reason it houses artefacts from all over the world. There are Indian sculptures, carpets, texts, textiles etc. kept on display in this museum. Ideally, one can explore all of it in an hour or two.
