The man, known as Pa-Sheri, was taken from Egypt to a museum in Derby in the 19th century, where he remained for over 150 years.

However, Pa-Sheri’s body was severely damaged in the process of being unwrapped and examined.

Now Ella Maude and Ella Monteiro, of Lincoln University, are trying to preserve him.
