I think it is more about protecting the mummy's dignity.

Respecting the dead etc.

Not that i agree with it. (see post above).
Com'on we are talking about an historical artifact.
Its what 2000 years old ? What dignity are you talking about, I just don't understand.

If we had wanted to respect the dead, europeans should never have scavenged and brough back trophees (mummies, etc...) from their ex colonies.

It's two things..........
  1. Political Correctness
  2. Possible legal action
It's just shows how plain silly this country has become.
