The issue of this work is to locate the collections of Egyptian and Middle Eastern mummies around the world. To do so, we have taken contact with several museums around the world (we can mention the British Museum, the Louvre, the Smithsonian Institution, the museum of Torino…), consulted many publications concerning these mummies in addition to visiting lots of net sites build about this subject. In result, we have approximatively succeeded to get the number of these mummies, their taphonomy - trying to show the degree of concern between the museums and the methods of their conservation - and the documentations made about them. This work puts the light mostly on mummies not really known worldwide.
