Last April the researchers of the Warsaw Mummy project discovered the existence of a fetus inside, which was first detected in an Egyptian mummy. But how has the fetus been preserved for so long?

In the mummification process, it was not eliminated or corrupted along with other organs. According to the researchers, it has been preserved “as pickled pickles”. Upon the death of the woman, the acid of the area formed inside and dried the balsamads.
