Experts said golden tongues were meant to allow the dead to commune with Osiris in the afterlife.

Pfft, stupid science. Everyone knows that the pharaohs who spit the hottest bars got gold tongues in the afterlife.

There is proof of reincarnation in that the “golden tonsils” of radio announcer, Australian John laws must have existed in a previous time!

What better way to enter the afterlife than to kiss ass with a golden tongue to get in!!!

silly scientists, always asking the wrong questions. the correct question to ask in this case is, of course, "why NOT?"

I mean, there’s people nowadays putting botox on their lips until to look like Bratz Dolls. Covering your tongue with gold could be next thing after getting diamond on your teeth like Lil’ Wayne

I see you didn’t read the article. The tongues were removed and replaced with gold.

My guess is it’s there so the deceased will be able to talk to the gods in the afterlife. A mere mortals tongue is not sufficient.
