My Left Foot


Yes, believe it or not you can actually acquire the mummified foot of a youth from ancient Egypt, although I'm not sure that you would want to. Those things are cursed...
Available at Ancient Resource.
Here's the auction description:
Ancient Egypt. A mummified human foot of a youth, Ptolemaic, c.4th - 2nd Century BC. Nicely preserved with most of the skin and nails intact. Second toe missing and ankle bone visible. On the bottom of the foot a thick layer of resin soaked leather, perhaps the soles of a sandal. L: 6" (15.1 cm). From an old Midwest collection. Foot had been wrapped in a 1948 Ohio newspaper which had been attached to the layer of resin.
