An ibis mummy wrapped to show the animal lying on its back with the beak resting on its ventral side and the legs drawn up to the body as if it were seated. It was once elaborately bandaged in a herringbone pattern radiating from the beak down, although the bandages are now very damaged. The beak was covered with a textile soaked with dark resinous material. A larger undyed bandage secures the edges of the herringbone pattern. The ibis was covered vertically and horizontally by bandages, held in place with some strands of linen thread. CT scans show a complete skeleton of an adult ibis positioned on its back, with the head folded over the sternum, wings folded against the sides of the body, neck curved in a S, and the legs flexed up toward the body. A big package of sandy material was introduced into the body cavity.
