https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellified_man
A mellified man, also known as a human mummy confection, was a legendary medicinal substance created by steeping a human cadaver in honey. The concoction is detailed in Chinese medical sources, including the Bencao Gangmu of the 16th century. Relying on a second-hand account, the text reports a story that some elderly men in Arabia, nearing the end of their lives, would submit themselves to a process of mummification in honey to create a healing confection.[1]

This process differed from a simple body donation because of the aspect of self-sacrifice; the mellification process would ideally start before death. The donor would stop eating any food other than honey, going as far as to bathe in the substance. Shortly, the donor's feces and even sweat would consist of honey. When this diet finally proved fatal, the donor's body would be placed in a stone coffin filled with honey.[2]

After a century or so, the contents would have turned into a sort of confection reputedly capable of healing broken limbs and other ailments. This confection would then be sold in street markets as a hard to find item with a hefty price

More disturbing is the actually real practice of grinding up 2000 year old mummies for medicine. Prior to Egyptology being a big deal there was an entire industry behind turning mummies into powder for human consumption. Pretty grim to think that the mummies we have now still preserved in museums are just a fraction of the amount that were eaten.
Imagine being some Egyptian noble having your body preserved for all eternity just to be dug up and eaten by some rich European idiot. It’s like how modern chinks hunt endangered species to extinction for boner pills.

not to mention the industry of grinding up mummies for medicine came from a mistranslation of bitumen, which was exploited by arab traders because it was somehow cheaper.
Then, when it became scarce or as a cheaper option they started using fresh corpses, dried in the sun.
this doesn't even scratch the surface of industrial uses of mummies, which only really ended in the early 20th century

People used to paint with ground up mummies because it made for good shadows. This sort of late 18thC interior where there's a warm yellow tone to all the shaded areas, and usually a bunch of crackling because turns out ground up person doesn't actually make for durable paint.

>>18952665
a lot of those mummies they ground up were cats
I also read once that they burned mummies to produce steam, but I don't know if it is true

I’m pretty sure using mummies to power trains was just a Mark Twain joke but I’m sure they were burned for heat or energy at some point

All this talk about corpse consumption makes me wonder if human medicine counts as cannibalism or necrophagia. Would that make a bunch of rich retarded nobles casual cannibals?
