McMummy – Chinese unearth 4000 year old mummy in a kilt!
by rodgermoffet
"A 4000 year old female mummy found in China has been identified as a Scot – due to its red hair and the fact it was wearing a kilt-like dress.
There has been much debate about the origins of the mummy, known as the Beauty of Xiaohe, since she was found in Xinjiang region in western China.
Other mummified remains found in the region have been linked to warriors of the Caledonii tribe."
