One French expert predicted that the dose of radioactivity, which would have been lethal to anyone living, would assure Ramses of "eternal life sheltered from deterioration." Skeptical Egyptian historians dismissed "Operation Pharaoh" as a political stunt by the French government, which paid the costs of the transfer and treatment, Egyptian scientists at the Pharaonic Museum will examine the cadaver for about 10 days in a special laboratory to determine the effects of the radiation treatment. The fungi had made wide cracks in Ramses' parchmentlike skin. "We have to see if something clearly has been done with Ramses.

Fifty white-uniformed policemen formed a casual security guard as the mummy, cradled in its original wooden coffin and encased in a plexiglass seal, was removed from a French air force plane. The welcome fell far short of the honor guard reception the mummy received on its arrival in Paris last September for the preservation treatment. President Anwar Sadat ignored suggestions by several Cairo newspapers that he personally welcome the remains of the pharaoh, who was the ruthless scourge of the Hit-tites and the builder of vast religious structures.

The coffin, covered in blue satin embroidered with lotus flowers, was lowered from the plane to a flatbed truck for the trip to the museum.
