In 2021, a mummy, completely bound in ropes and with her hands covering her face, is discovered in an underground tomb in Peru.

Archaeologists from the National University of San Marcos found the mummy in good condition at Cajamarquilla, a notable site 15.5 miles inland from the coastal city and capital of Lima, Peru.
The mummy is estimated to be between 800 and 1200 years old.

Although the mummy's striking pose - bound by ropes and in the fetal position - seems cool at first glance, researchers believe it is a southern Peruvian funerary custom.

The tomb also contains ceramics, vegetable remains and stone tools!!!
