Salt Lake City, Utah - Pyramid of Modern Mummification A massive pyramid on the property of a private home in which the mummification of cats, dogs and, reportedly humans, occurs. [Paul Bottini, 06/18/2008]
Salt Lake City, Utah - Pyramid of Modern Mummification A man in Salt Lake City actually makes his living mummifying
remains of dogs, cats, and reportedly humans. His home is a pyramid in
downtown SLC, and his workshop/embalmorama is in a similar but smaller
pyramid in his yard. I saw it firsthand a few years ago. [Dusty Scott, 12/20/2000][RA: The Pyramid -- 40 feet square at the base and 26 feet tall -- is actually the headquarters of Summum, a religion that reportedly is the only organization in the world to offer the service of modern mummification.]
