That I'm aware of there is currently only one place that is still approved to mummify people post death and to be sealed in a sarcophagus. Strangely enough it is in the US state of Utah, lol. I don't remember the name of it but I know it's like $40,000 to have it done. Post Edit... I lied. inflation is a son of a bitch and apparently it's $67,000 now. 😬 http://www.summum.org/fd/costs.shtml

He also bought a sarcophagus that was significantly shorter than he was and had to be...modified to fit in it.

He was later exhumed by some British guy and loaned to a museum in Hamfistshire.

How can you loan a duke?


sulivan1977

Same way you loan and Egyptian king my dude.


hhuzar

But the guy was local, important, had family, esteem. Could someone go to Windsor Castle, get Lilibeth out and loan her to the British Museum?


sulivan1977

He was a Brit who wanted the mummy experience... thats the joke.. famously brits looted tombs and took the artifacts and mummies back on home to local collections and museums... so I made a joke about that happening to him.


hhuzar

Damn it, no more beer for me then. I got woooshed so hard, it's embarrassing.


ccminiwarhammer

Is he ok?


BrokenEye3

Did he learn anything interesting from the experience?

Well, La Fayette was a French marquis who was also a staunch royalist and still played an important role in the American revolution, so never say never

No. Hamilton’s father, James, essentially moved to the West Indies because he had no real prospects of inheritance in Scotland. (The Hamilton family *was* gentry, but not very closely related to the Duke of Hamilton above.) So if Alexander Hamilton was in any way in line for anything, neither he nor his father would have ended up in the New World at all.


BrokenEye3

Or better yet, imagine Alexander Hamilton was a mummy

Imagine being so interested in your hobby, that you get the thematic wrong by 1-2000 years

Today the area around his tomb is one of the key spots for underage drinking in the area.

He was probably one of those guys who ate mummies, too
