--- lesson 77 a successful operation[00:00:01]

--- first listen and then answer the question.[00:00:08]

--- did the doctors find out how the woman died?[00:00:14]

the mummy of an egyptian woman who died in 800 b.c. has just had an operation.[00:00:20]

the mummy is that of shepenmut who was once a singer in the temple of thebes.[00:00:29]

as there were strange marks on the x-ray plates taken of the mummy,[00:00:38]

doctors have been trying to find out whether the woman died of a rare disease.[00:00:44]

the only way to do this was to operate.[00:00:50]

the operation, which lasted for over four hours, proved to be very difficult because of the hard resin which covered the skin.[00:00:53]

the doctors removed a section of the mummy and sent it to a laboratory.[00:01:03]

they also found something which the x-ray plates did not show: a small wax figure of the god duamutef.[00:01:09]

this god which has the head of a cow was normally placed inside a mummy.[00:01:20]

the doctors have not yet decided how the woman died.[00:01:27]

they feared that the mummy would fall to pieces when they cut it open, but fortunately this has not happened.[00:01:31]

the mummy successfully survived the operation.[00:01:39]

--- end[00:01:44]
