The mummified remains of many of the Black indigenous Kemetyu were eaten by Europeans because they believed it could give them both healing and enhanced powers. Many of the black mummies were an ingredient used in medicine in Europe, mummies remains were ground into powder and consumed with chocolate or alcohol. This practice continued well into the early 20th century, with the last documented sale of "medical mummy powder" in 1908.
