Prosthetic Big Toe
An interesting little snippet about an ancient Egyptian prosthetic toe, unlike mummies which we know often had missing parts replicated prior to wrapping, this one seems to have been a proper prosthetic attachment to help the person to walk.

Re: Prosthetic Big Toe
You do not always have to evolve over time to become cleverer.
This could also be used if sir had dressed on the left, if suffering from a hunting accident or misjudged swordplay.

Life is your's to do with as you wish- do not let other's try to control it for you. Count Dusak- 1345.

Re: Prosthetic Big Toe
Apparently preserved human toes are worth £48,000 so maybe he had it cut off deliberately!

Re: Prosthetic Big Toe



Reminds me of my daughter holidaying in Mexico and saying "I will bring you some Tequila back"
My reply was “Don’t bother if it has a worm in the bottle”
