Mummies key to mystery

The seven mummies on display at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History are nowhere near as famous as King Tut, but they're just as intriguing.

Take the 2,000-year-old body of a teenager, found in the Netherlands. Who was she? Who killed her and why?

The remains of a cord used to strangle Yde Girl are still visible around her neck a century after she was found in a peat bog. Was the killing punishment, or ritual?
