The present paper is the first report on the preservation status of a mummified brain found during anthropological analysis of human skeletal remains which were found in two skulls. So we were interested in it and we tried to discover, whether it could by mummified human cerebellum. These two samples were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy- dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and CT scanning. But none of these methods withheld evident confirm of it source. The survival of brain remains when no other soft tissues are preserved is extremely rare and we could find no evidence of similar cases from Slovakia.
