“To date, the U.S. forensic team has only performed a cursory visual examination of the specimens with the aid of limited imaging equipment. Any conclusory statements about the specimens would be extremely premature. Limitations on our examination precluded excluding or confirming any manipulation of the remains. Currently, the forensic team can only indicate that further examination and study is warranted. We invite constructive interaction and collaboration.”
End of official statement.
I was asked to release that because I have been getting many media requests about what has been determined. The answer is “nothing yet.” Forensic examinations take time, resources and testing. We only had hours to take a look as a preliminary examination. What are they? We can find out, but it will take time. The docs know the process of how to get answers. They just need time, access and resources.
I’ve been working on a new blog post that should be up soon. I will discuss the OTHER items allegedly found in the caves alongside the mummies. Metal plates with engravings? (check), stone carvings? (yup), and more? You better believe it.
