IDAHO FALLS — In conjunction with the “Mummies of the World” display at the Museum of Idaho, two world-renowned egyptologists will pay a visit for several events.

Dr. Bob Brier, also known as “Mr. Mummy,” and author and art historian, Patricia Remler, will be coming to the area.

Brier is one of the world’s foremost authorities on mummies and ancient Egypt. He is most well-known for replicating the mummification practices of the ancient Egyptians to create the first modern mummy, MUMBAD (Mummy of University of Maryland at Baltimore.)

Brier has examined some of history’s most famous mummies. From ancient Egyptian mummies, like King Tutankhamun and Ramses the Great, to more modern examples like members of the Medici family and Vladimir Lenin.
