The only records available show that “African missioners” donated “a mummy of an Egyptian Queen” to Ireland’s University College Cork. This record is thought to refer both to the mummy and its sarcophagus.
 
Ireland’s University College Cork has announced that in 2023 it will repatriate to Egypt antiquities the oldest of which likely date between 945-700 BC.
