Cave Mummy Emerges From 7-Ton Rock at Mammoth Cave
National Park Service workers freed a limestone tomb blocked by seven tons of rock at Mammoth Cave, exposing a 500 year old Algonquin mummy. Archaeologist Alonzo W. Pond described the find as ancient and significant, with possible ornaments or tools beneath the body. The lifting used 40-ton chain blocks in front of crowds of CCC enrollees and spectators as lights illuminated the chamber. Pond hoped to relocate the mummy for further study the same day.
