Hodgins says no Ancient Egyptians had red hair, however Queen Tiye (wife to Amenhotep III and mother of Akhenaten) had red hair as did a pre-Dynastic mummy called Ginger for his ginger hair.
In the intro, night guard tosses coins onto the fence around the transformer causing sparks and later gets shocked by touching it. Electromagnetic field of the operational transformer can induce electric current, but it is too low to cause sparks as shown in the scene and way to weak to cause shock. Also, the EM field is also too weak to rip metal flashlight from guard's hand. Furthermore, according to OSHA rules, any enclosure marked with 'high voltage' signs cannot be electrified itself and only act as a barrier protecting the electrified equipment from accidental access. If the fence has been electrified by design, it would have been protected by another fence and the night guard would have not been allowed inside such perimeter.
The character Azita Jabbari is presented as an Egyptian. Egyptian Arabic doesn't have a "j" (as in "Joseph") sound in it, like other Arabic dialects do. Egyptian Arabic uses a "g" (as in "golf") sound instead. So her last name in Egyptian Arabic would "Gabbari" not "Jabbari".
When Bones and Booth enter the mummy's room to question the curator they find blood dripping from the sarcophagus, this is impossible as blood congeals after a few hours and the victim had been dead for more than a day.
The stolen ruby is shown as a faceted stone. In this period, faceting of the type shown was not a known technique. It would likely be a cabochon.
Angela is incorrect in her statement that canopic jars were too unimportant to be painted - they would, in fact, up be inscribed and the lids (until including the 18th dynasty) be topped with the carved heads of protective deities. Tutankhamen even had lavishly fashioned mini-sarcophagi for his inner organs, rather than ordinary jars.
Daisy Wick's assumption that female corpses were allowed to putrefy a little in order to discourage necrophilia is based solely on one passage in the second book of Herodotus' "Historiai", and is not substantiated by archaeological evidence, which makes it an inadmissible criterion for the identification of a mummy.
In the dinner scene with Andrew Hacker, Dr. Brennan says that Egyptian mummies are generally empty except for perfume residue and the like. In fact, the heart was always left in the torso (believed by the Egyptians to be the most important organ), as well as the kidneys.
Dr. Saroyan erroneously mentions that the Egyptians would store the brain in a canopic jar. While the brain was, in fact, removed, its remnants were later disposed of (believed to be unimportant).
