As my latest assignment, I was supposed to think of 5 questions that I could ask about a place to determine whether it would be a promising place to find mummies.

Is there any evidence that an ancient civilization has lived in the area?

If there was an ancient civilization, was mummification a part of their culture/religion?

If not, are there natural conditions like mossy bogs that could preserve a human?

Have other mummies been found in the general area?

Are there any locations that might have been used as burial areas?
