The Mummy Detective: The Three Kings (2004)

Apropos my last post, here is an amazing documentary by Bob Brier, a/k/a 'The Mummy Detective', an Egyptologist, who is  a Senior Research Fellow at Long Island University/LIU Post

He steps out of his specific field of Egyptology to take a look at the relics of the Three Kings, venerated in the Cathedral Church of Saint Peter, in Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

Subjecting them to scientific scrutiny, he comes to the conclusion that the bones may indeed be the relics of Melchior, Caspar, and Balthasar.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
