But the cutting edge footwear, with the trademark stripes of the sportswear ‘Adidas’ brand, has been causing a stir on the internet, and fuelling talk of time travel. Experts believe the mummy was a young Turkic woman. The corpse was buried with a saddle, bridle, clay vase, wooden bowl, trough, iron kettle, and an entire horse. The Mongolian Cultural Heritage Centre is working on restoration of the archaeological find, the task is now 80% complete. The mummy wearing ‘Adidas boots’ will go on display in the National Museum of Mongolia from March.
