'Alien mummies' case takes new twist as more bodies found in Peru

Two more ‘alien mummies’ have been found in Peru as the mystery into their origins takes a new twist. Paloma and Antonio are the names given to the two new figures who have been discovered in the Nazca desert, seven years after the first was discovered by ufologist Jaime Maussan.
Intriguingly the two new ‘mummies’ also have the same three fingers as the others but these have small, slanted eyes and are the size of a ‘short adult’. In January this year forensic experts said that two other of the supposed mummies which had three fingers were in fact made from paper, glue, metal as well as human and animal bones.
The dolls had been seized in a shipment from Pero to Mexico and the analysis appeared to quash theories that they were aliens. Forensic archaeologist Flavio Estrada, who led the analysis said that claims they came from an “alien centre or come from another planet (…) is totally false.”.
But this has not put off Dr David Ruiz Vela, former president of Peru’s medical association who believes that the new mummies have human-like organs and a brain structure. After analysing the two figures which he believes are around 1,500 years old, he said that Antonio had a stab wound to the chest while Paloma was the first of the ‘mummies’ to have hair.
Mr Maussan has presented more than 10 of these ‘mummies’ to Mexico’s Congress in a bid to show that they are an alien life. But at the same time these claims of alien life were also dismissed in 2018 when DNA samples led scientists to conclude that the figures were from modified pre-Colombian mummies.
