I am always fascinated by this stuff. I don’t know if I agree with moving the mummies from the location that protected and took care of them for thousands of years.

I agree with Brother Bernard. It would be better to leave where they are and enclose them in a shatter-proof glass box where they can be seen but are otherwise left undisturbed.

Thank you. I am old school. Graves should not be bothered, but on the other hand I would be the first in line to see them at the actual site. I don't know how I reconcile those two things in my mind.

I think they are afraid of tomb robbers...

I believe they could make the actual place a museum. the walls and the writings on them are just as historic and provide context.
