re: Hatshepsut in life...and in death...

SDAI-Tech1 — 1/30/2008 10:25:58 PM (archived)

In life she was a precious flower...

And in death, she knew she was immortal... and is the least scary corpse you'll ever see. Her abandoned shell and it's genuinely happy smile makes one think of love and happiness thousands of years later...

And her golden hair still looks pretty good after nearly 35 centuries - not a gray hair in the lot!

(Apologies to those who don't like looking at mummies of any kind...I normally am very opposed to that graphic sort of thing, but Hatshepsut was so positive a force, that even the shell she left behind is still tolerable to endure - uplifting instead of depressing. )
