The axe of "Otzi the Iceman (well-preserved mummy dated to 3300 BC) is made from copper. 

Such methods also make it possible to learn about the state of health of the dead before death, the diseases from which they suffered, their age at the time of death, the method used for their mummification, and even the cultural environment in which they lived and were mummified (Cockbum et al. 1998 Harris and Wente 1980). The conception and development of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) at the end of the twentieth century made it also possible to study the genetic characteristics of the mummies and of the populations to which they belonged (see Textbox 65). 

Amplification of the amounts of DNA in extremely small samples has made it possible to obtain accurate analyses that were not possible earlier. Forensic applications of the technique have resulted in positive identifications of crime victims and suspects. Even minuscule amounts of ancient DNA, such as those available from Egyptian mummies, can now be researched after amplification. The following Biochemical Gonnections box describes some forensic uses of DNA technology. 

Ekelund said nothing, but made a sharp irritated gesture to the mummy. It let the girl go. She floundered, trembling so badly she could hardly stand. Ralph caught her before she fell. He winced at the weight that put on his injured leg. 

Thinking about her home made her skin cold. It was something she d managed to avoid all day. I wonder what Mummy and Daddy are being made to do by their possessors Evil, vile acts if that awful Quinn Dexter has any say in the matter. 

Solution of gum or of natural or synthetic resins that dries to a thin, hard, usually glossy film it may be transparent, translucent, or tinted. Oil varnishes are made from hard gum or resin dissolved in oil. Spirit varnishes, e.g., shellac, are usually made of soft gums or resins dissolved in a volatile solvent. Enamel is varnish with added pigments. Lacquer may be either a synthetic or natural varnish. As a decorative or protective coating, varnish has been used for oil paintings, for string instruments, and, by the ancient Egyptians, for mummy cases. 

The use of chemicals dates back to the ancient civilizations. For example, many chemicals were known and used by the ancient Egyptians—they used soda (known to them as natron ) mixed with animal fats as soap to wash corpses, and on its own in the mummifying process which followed. Glass objects and glazed pottery, which were buried with the mummies for their use in their assumed after-life, were made from soda and sand.
