"Searching for information on all recorded mummies we were immediately struck by the details of the very strange remains of a young man who in life had been over five feet eight inches tall. Photographs of the unwrapped mummy were conspicuous because of the appearance extreme agony on the face as well as the details of the burial which were
highly unusual. The body had not been embalmed in that there was no incision and all the internal organs were in place. While the individual had therefore not been mummified in the usual sense of the word. He had been wrapped in the normal manner. Strangely no attempt had been made to set the angle of the head or compose the facial features and the initial effect is of a man issuing a long, terrible scream. The arms are nor at the side of the bod nor crossed on the chest in the usual manner but stretched downward with the cupped hands
covering, yet not quite touching, the pubic region. Beneath the hands lies a space where the genitals should be. This man had been castrated. As the possibility of coincidence evaporated, we knew with utter certainty that we had not only found Hiram Abtif, the legendary architect of the Temple, but after three and a half thousand ears we had solved the circumstances of the Killing and identified one one the murderers."
