The first known case of clogged arteries, or atherosclerosis, has been found in the mummy of an Egyptian princess, a study presented at a United States cardiology conference says.
The princess who likely lived between 1580 and 1550BC, probably died when she was in her early 40s, researchers at the University of California, Irvine believe.
