A mummified Ancient Egyptian priest is talking from beyond the grave thanks to modern technology. Nesyamun, a priest at the time of pharaoh Ramses II the Pharaohs was mummified around 3,000 years ago. His remains are so well preserved that scientists were able to map his throat, mouth and voice box using a CT scanner at Leeds General Infirmary, and recreate it using 3D printing. The priest, who is normally on display at Leeds museum, was first unwrapped in 1824 and has'true of voice' inscribed on his coffin. Academics believe his voice would have produced a vowel-like sound -- somewhere between an'a' and'e' noise.
