The original “Mummy” (1932) had a now-lost deleted scene, showing the Princess Ankh-es-en-Amon’s reincarnations through history, including one as a Christian fed to the lions in Rome and as a Princess during the Crusades. 

There is some debate over why the scenes were cut. It could have been due to time and pacing, but it is also known that “Mummy” director Karl Freund and actress Zita Johann did not like each other very much and frequently clashed.
