New York -- Officials with a New York museum said a CT scan performed on an Egyptian mummy thought to be Lady Hor revealed the remains did not belong to a lady at all.
Brooklyn Museum officials said CT scans performed on the facility's mummies by doctors at North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset, N.Y., discovered a scrotum and penis on a 2,000-year-old mummy that was thought to be Lady Hor when it was first discovered in 1937, the New York Daily News reported Wednesday.
"It's definitely a man," said Edward Bleiberg, the museum's curator of Egyptian art. "Physiologically, it's really clear."
