Hello everybody!
This is my first time on a general forum like this.
And seeing as how this is the case, I have a few (Many) questions to ask about my favorite ancient civilization...The Takla Makan Mummies who may or may not be Tocharians. And when I refer to these mummies, I am referring to the 3,000 some odd year old mummies which were found in the Tarim Basin.
Well, here are a few questions about them to start things off...
1: Roughly how many Takla Makan mummies were found in total?
2: Where did the Takla Makan mummies live? In the desert? In caves perhaps?
3: If the Takla Makan mummies were alive, would they be attractive-looking?
4: What language did they speak way back then?
5: Did they know how to read and write?
6: If so, did they write on scrolls? What did they use to write with?
I will ask more questions as I think of them, but do know I have a LOT of questions to ask.
Good luck to everybody who decides to answer them!
