Despite several hundred mummified crocodiles being available in museum collections around the world, they are often not fully examined. In this study, the authors provide a detailed analysis of the morphology and preservation of ten crocodile mummies found in rock tombs at the site of Qubbat al-Hawa on the west bank of the Nile.
