Archaeologists in Peru have discovered an extraordinarily preserved mummy in a tomb near Lima with its hands evocatively placed over its face. It is believed to be between 800 and 1,200 years old and is linked to pre-Incan coastal cultures, possibly the Lima or Ichma peoples. The mummy was found inside a burial chamber along with pottery, ropes, and organic remains, suggesting it once belonged to someone of social importance. Experts believe the unusual hand placement may have had a deep symbolic meaning, linked to funerary rituals or beliefs about the afterlife. This chilling discovery not only enriches Peru’s rich archaeological record but also raises new questions: did the gesture represent protection, reverence, or perhaps a silence that lasted into eternity? ✨ More details in the comments 👇👇
