At first glance, the mummy’s startling pose—bound by ropes and in the position of a foetus—seems terrifying, but scholars think it is a southern Peruvian funeral tradition.

According to Mr. Van Dalen Luna, “there are ongoing events and activities after the body is buried.”

That is to say, over many years, their ancestors have returned and left there food and offerings, including mollusks.

The Inca civilisation, which ruled the southern region of South America 500 years ago, is assumed to have predated the mummy, which is believed to be a male.

The finding of this residence, according to Pieter Van Dalen Luna, one of the archaeologists who oversaw the excavation, “sheds new light on contacts and relationships in pre-Hispanic times.”

Cajamarquilla was occupied throughout the first millennium of the current era, but was then abandoned.

According to evidence made public by the university, the findings show that the region was probably multiethnic and would have been inhabited by settlers from the coast and the mountains.

The mummy is estimated to be between 800 and 1200 years old.

According to Huamán, “the entire squad was incredibly delighted because we didn’t think this was going to happen.”

“We weren’t planning to make such a significant finding,”
