Pentawer
Pentawer was the son of Pharaoh Ramses III and is infamously known for his involvement in the 'Harem Conspiracy,' a plot to assassinate his father. Following the conspiracy's failure, he was punished by being denied mummification, a grave dishonor in ancient Egyptian culture, and his body was wrapped in sheep skin, signifying his impurity. His remains, often referred to as the 'screaming mummy,' display evidence of strangulation, which aligns with historical accounts of his execution.
