 First of all, excuse me if my english is not correct, im from Russia so don't be a 'grammar nazi' please :). 


While Chinese workers operated at a road in Tanzhou, China they found a concrete box buried six feet below the surface.

They tried to dig up the concrete box for hours, but it quickly became apparent that this was no usual box, but an old grave.

For the further inspection the workers called immediately archaeologists to help. They should find out what they're dealing with.

On closer inspection the archaeologists saw a dead body laying in water.

Archaeologists told that this is not just a dead body. It turned out that the body was a mummy.

You can recognize on the feet that it's a female mummy. These feet are called 'lotus feet'. The body is more than 700 years old.

The jewelry on her finger pointed out that this female mummy came from the family of the well-known Ming Dynasty.

The body was in a very good condition. You can even clearly see the facial contours.


For all interested there's also a video on Youtube:
