I think the issue with the textiles was that no other archeological evidence, other than these mummies, had the particular type of twill weave that the mummy wrappings had, in Asia, but it was common in Europe, especially in the Halstatt burials in Austria, and in other Celtic cites. Of course, no one knows where the Celts came from. Nevertheless, the contemporary burials of dead people with Asian features (skeletal, as well as what flesh was preserved) did not contain similar textiles. The conclusion I would draw was that the dead people with European features were culturally different than the contemporary dead people with Asian features. If the dead people with European features were from the same culture as the dead people with Asian features, then they would be wearing similar textiles and would be buried with similar artifacts. In fact, they were not. The artifacts are segregated by type consistent with the physical characteristics of the people with whom the artifacts were buried.
