What are they?

The Nazca Mummies are a collection of ancient bodies discovered in the Nazca region of Peru. Unearthed in a series of underground tunnels in 2015, these mummies were found near the Nazca Lines, famous for their geoglyphs.

How were they discovered?

In 2015, a Peruvian huaquero (grave robber) discovered three mummies ranging from 40cm to 61cm in length while searching through caves near the Nazca Lines. The grave robber, who happened to be friends with a doctor at the University of Inka in Lima, Peru, sold the specimens to the doctor for research purposes.

How old are they?

The age of the Nazca Mummies, as determined by carbon dating, varies among the specimens but generally dates back to between 750 CE and 1,300 CE.

Why are they covered in white powder?

The bodies are covered in a white powder because they were buried in diatomaceous earth. This natural, powdery substance is known for its moisture-absorbing qualities, which helped preserve the mummies by drawing moisture away from the bodies and creating a dry environment that inhibits decay and bacterial growth.
