    The researchers expected to discover the remains of a male priest. Researchers took scans of the mummy and found that the remains belonged to a pregnant woman. (Image credit: Warsaw Mummy Project) Researchers have discovered the world's first-known pregnant mummy, dating from the first century in Egypt.
    The mummy was previously thought to be a male priest but scans reveal it was a woman in the later stages of pregnancy. Experts from the project believe the remains are most likely of a high-status woman, aged between 20 and 30, who died during the 1st Century BC.
    Archaeologists from the Warsaw Mummy Project examine the mummy, previously thought to be a priest. Wojtek Ejsmond, one of the three co-founders of the Warsaw Mummy Project, told CNN the mummy was first brought to Poland in 1826 by Jan Wężyk-Rudzki.
    What’s more, four of the mummy’s organs—likely the lungs, liver, stomach and heart—appear to have been extracted, embalmed and returned to the body in accordance with common mummification practices. Why did the embalmers not do the same with the unborn baby? Archaeologist Marzena Ozarek-Szilke stands next to the mummy and sarcophagus.
