Don’t Drink the Mummy Juice

News of the opening of a 2,000-year-old sarcophagus in Egypt sparked quick reactions on the internet, particularly a suggestion of a reason to imbibe the reddish liquid inside the container along with the human skeletal remains. Fulton Schools Professor Rolf Halden, director of ASU’s Center for Environmental Health Engineering, had his own strong recommendation in response: Don’t do it. But he did offer to have his lab analyze a sample to help clear up any mystery about the nature of the liquid.
