When someone wanders by, they would see what appeared to be a human-like figure nestled against the stone wall of the bridge. The mummy seems to be made from tightly bound wrappings of rope, wrapped around a metal type framing.

It seems, various types of ropes, have been used to fashion not only the mummies head, limbs and torso but how it is seen on display. Maybe this would be considered as artistic expression or street performance art. Whatever it may well be, it is quite an elaborate type scheme, which has gained some attention.

The weight of the mummy is unknown, but comparable to an adult man at around 200 pounds or so by estimation. It is unknown yet, if the mummy has been removed or left behind at the foot of the stairs where is was first discovered.
