Scientists also presume that Juanita may have died of internal bleeding, seemingly from a blow to the head. Elements from the CT scan presented that Juanita was also given a meal prior to her death, which also relates back to the rituals of the Inca people, as they would feed the sacrifice in advance to their death. Juanita is one of the most significant mummies to have ever been uncovered. She was said to be one of the best preserved mummies. Hilda Vidal, who is an Anthropologist (Study of humanity)[5], discovered that Juanita’s skin began to unveil a different colour, from her normal dark brown colour, which was showed a sign of anxiety.

Fisch died there, of tuberculosis. While cleaning a leaking closet, Hauptmann rediscovered the box, and discovered that it was full of waterlogged bills. He claimed that he took these to his garage and began to dry them, hiding each bundle as it dried.

For example Horas the sky god is human with the head of a hawk. In ancient Egypt the priests will attend to the god's needs, funeral rights with making a final attempt to revive the diseased, supervising the artists and works and advising the people and helping with their problems. As the temples were believed to be home of the particular god that was worshipped there, the priest was the only one who could enter. In the morning the Priest would attend to the god’s needs by breaking the seal, lighting a torch to wake the god, they would say prayers, light incense to purify the air, wash the statue, place fresh clothes and jewels on it and placed offerings of food and drink near it. The people would usually worship the god at the outside gate or the court.
After Joseph’s death, the Egyptians embalmed him and he was placed in a coffin. Joseph didn’t let the hard times shape him. He faced betrayal and desertion by his family members, sexual temptation, punishment for doing the right thing, long imprisonment and being forgotten by those he helped.
