New discoveries about three-fingered ‘alien mummy’ found in South American cave revealed

Three-fingered ‘alien mummies’ uncovered in Peru have largely been dismissed as a hoax by the scientific community, but a new study has suggested otherwise.

A recent imaging analysis on one of the humanoids named ‘Maria’ found it has biological similarities to that of a human – but with ‘many morphological and anatomical structural differences.’

The creature’s bones were observed to flow smoothly under the mummified casing, in a way that is found throughout the human body, and its elongated skull showed no signs of artificial cranial deformation.

The team was also able to date the mummy to between 240AD and 383AD, ‘indicating its coexistence with the ancient Nazca civilization,’ they shared in the study.

Maria, labeled M01, was one of six mummies found inside the tomb in Nazca, a city in southern Peru in 2017 – a nine-month-old child and four males were also uncovered.

Journalist and ufologist Jaime Maussan found the mummies and has paraded many of them in front of Mexico’s Congress, claiming they are alien beings that once walked on Earth.

Two new ‘alien’ mummies from Peru are revealed – and they could be shipped to US for DNA tests

A Mexican journalist claiming to be in possession of alien corpses is looking to American and European scientists to confirm their authenticity.

Two newly unearthed ‘alien’ mummies from Peru have caused waves of controversy since x-ray and ultrasound data on the bodies was unveiled this past March, with archeologists fearing they may be ancient humans dug up by tomb raiders. 

Journalist and UFO researcher Jaime Maussan confirmed to DailyMail.com that more in-depth ‘analyses are being done’ — and he’s suing Peru’s government for the right to ship the bodies to more advanced labs in the US.

Maussan, whose research has courted controversy for nearly a decade, has floated the idea that the mummies might be alien-human ‘hybrids,’ with his scientist colleagues declaring that the new specimens contain ’30 percent unknown’ DNA.

But critics continue to cast doubt on his claims. 

‘Personally, I am not convinced that they are humanoid. I think they’re human,’ Latin American historian Christopher Heaney told DailyMail.com.

Maussan and his colleagues have had an eventful year pushing for wider scientific interest in the apparently alien bodies, including a controversial presentation before Mexico’s Congress and clashes with Peru’s Ministry of Culture.

The drama over the bodies came amid exploding public policy debate on UFOs — as politicians in the United States follow the lead of government whistleblowers and Ivy League scientists in calling for more open research on the mystery. 

Maussan’s clash with his critics reached its most heated moment this past April when a press conference that he held in Peru was raided by police intent on seizing one of the new mummified bodies on display, dubbed ‘Montserrat.’ 

Undaunted, Maussan is now suing the government of Peru both for damages and for the right to ship these mummy specimens to university researchers and other scientists in the United States for more thorough, independent third-party testing.  

‘The lawsuit is already in for $300 million,’ Maussan told DailyMail.com. 

‘We are going to negotiate with Peru,’ Maussan said, ‘to be allowed to export the samples to be done in America.’

‘Aliens’ which sparked global debate by Mexican Congress are actually dolls, say Peru scientists

Two doll-like figures and an alleged three-fingered hand that were seized by customs authorities in Peru, have been dismissed as “not alien” by scientists.

Picked up in a shipment headed to Mexico last year, forensic experts have determined that the objects were made with paper, glue, metal and human and animal bones.

It comes after Mexico’s congress sparked international debate after hearing testimony purporting to show the existence of extraterrestrial life.

The findings quash some people’s belief that the figures come from an “alien centre or come from another planet, all of which is totally false,” said forensic archaeologist Flavio Estrada, who led the analysis.

“The conclusion is simple: they are dolls assembled with bones of animals from this planet, with modern synthetic glues, therefore they were not assembled during pre-Hispanic times,” Estrada told reporters.

“They are not extraterrestrials; they are not aliens.”

Mummified ‘aliens’ found in Peru have 30% DNA of an ‘unknown species,’ new analysis claims

The mystery of Mexico‘s ‘aliens‘ is deepening after an analysis claimed the DNA of tiny corpses is not human but of an ‘unknown species.’ 

The nation’s Congress has been a circus for the past two months as controversial UFO enthusiast and journalist Jaime Maussan has held court several times to prove the mummified remains found in Peru are extraterrestrial life.

In his recent attempt, Maussan ushered in a team of researchers who performed a DNA analysis on the figures that showed 30 percent is ‘not from any known species’ and stated that the figures were ‘authentic,’ comprising a single skeleton.

The other 70 percent has not yet been revealed. 

DailyMail.com revealed that a UFO expert who has handled the tiny bodies suggested humans put them together – and the pair could have been made with now-extinct animals 1,000 years ago.

‘This is the first time extraterrestrial life has been presented in this manner, Maussan said to Congress.

‘We have a clear example of non-human specimens unrelated to any known species on our planet. 

‘The public has the right to know about non-human technology and beings. This reality unites humanity rather than dividing us. We are not alone in this vast universe; we should embrace this truth.’ 

Maussan added that the two corpses have sturdy bones, are toothless, and contain implants made of the soft, slivery-white metal cadmium and the bluish-white metal osmium – rare elements on Earth. 

He revealed in September that 30 percent of the DNA was unknown, but it was not until recently that claims of an unknown species surfaced.

‘Alien Bodies’ Revisited at Second Mexican Congressional Hearing on UFOs

A second Mexican Congressional hearing on UFOs held this week saw further discussion surrounding a pair of peculiar mummified bodies which some contend are aliens. The eyebrow-raising remains said to have been discovered in Peru spawned worldwide headlines back in September when journalist and ufologist Jaime Maussan unveiled them to politicians at the first gathering devoted to exploring UFOs. On Tuesday, Mexico’s Congress tackled the topic for a second time and, once again, the mysterious ‘alien’ bodies took center stage with multiple witnesses testifying to their unusual nature.

Sharing new photos and x-rays of the bodies, Dr. Daniel Mendoza reportedly posited that they were of “non-human beings,” while Maussan took it a step further and argued that they were some kind of “new species” and asserted that these entities possessed neither lungs nor ribs. As to suggestions that the remains were cobbled together in a fashion similar to a Fiji Mermaid, anthropologist Roger Zuniga reportedly declared that “there was absolutely no human intervention in the physical and biological formation of these beings.” He also furnished a letter signed by 11 of his colleagues from San Luis Gonzaga National University who echoed that assessment, though they stopped short of calling the beings extraterrestrial.

‘Alien corpse’ row deepens as Peru launches criminal probe into how ‘non-human’ bodies left the country as expert who revealed them in Mexican congress insists he has done ‘nothing illegal’

An investigator who presented ‘non-human’ bodies to Mexico‘s congress has insisted he did ‘absolutely nothing illegal’ as Peru has launched a criminal probe into how the alleged ‘aliens’ left the country.

Journalist and UFO enthusiast Jaime Maussan unveiled two corpses alongside forensic scientists last week in what he described as a ‘watershed’ moment.

He has suggested the mummified bodies – which he claims to be 1,000 years old – are one of the most important discoveries in human history.

But most in the scientific community aren’t so sure – suggesting that they are part of an already-debunked, perhaps criminal stunt.

Maussan, 70, claims they were found around 2017 in Peru, near the pre-Columbian Nazca Lines – a mysterious set of ancient geoglyphs.

But now Peruvian officials have furiously questioned how the specimens, which they insist are earthly objects, left the country and came into Maussan’s possession.

‘Aliens’ Terrorizing Peruvian Village Revealed to be Mischievous Miners

Peruvian authorities have identified the alleged aliens that have been terrorizing a village for the past month and revealed that the ‘extraterrestrials’ were actually a group of miners with a scheme straight out of the classic cartoon Scooby-Doo. The wild case, which made headlines earlier this week, began last month when the Ikitu indigenous people living in the district of Alto Nanay reported nightly visits from fantastic beings, believed to be aliens or supernatural entities, that seemingly possessed the power to levitate. Following an attack on a teenage girl by one of the eerie interlopers, Peruvian authorities descended on the scene to investigate and managed to quickly unmask the nefarious ‘ETs.’

In detailing the findings of their investigation, an official reportedly indicated that the ‘visitors’ were actually a group of individuals who were illegally mining for gold in the nearby jungle. Amazingly, lest one think that the accounts of levitating aliens were a case of mass hysteria or simply made up out of whole cloth, he explained that the gang actually used jet packs to make it appear as if the ‘beings’ were not bound by the laws of gravity. The purpose of the elaborate production was to convince the villagers that aliens or supernatural beings had overtaken the jungle so that they fearfully avoided the area while the illegal mining operation was underway.

168 NAZCA GEOGLYPHS IDENTIFIED IN PERU

YAMAGATA UNIVERSITY, WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PERUVIAN ARCHAEOLOGISTS, HAVE IDENTIFIED 168 NAZCA GEOGLYPHS IN THE NASCA PAMPA AND SURROUNDING AREA.

The researchers conducted field surveys using high-resolution aerial photography and drone images, leading to the discovery of 168 geoglyphs that date from between 100 BC and AD 300.

This adds to 190 geoglyphs previously discovered between 2004 and 2018, that led to the creation of an archaeological park in the Aja area in 2017 by the Peruvian Ministry of Culture.

The new geoglyphs depict images of humans, camelids, birds, orcas, felines, and snakes, which were created by removing black stones from the surface of the earth to expose a white sandy surface beneath.

Current research suggests that there are two types of geoglyphs: a linear type and a relief type. Of the geoglyphs discovered in the study, only five are linear, while 163 are relief type, measuring less than 10 metres in diameter and mainly distributed along ancient trails.

Peru Slams Pfizer Over Legal Immunity For COVID Vaccine Side Effects

Health minister Pilar Mazzetti told lawmakers that she has been in “constant contact” with Pfizer since July. She was not able to elaborate in-depth due to a confidentiality agreement with the American multinational pharmaceutical company. But she did say contract disputes materialized in December. 

“With Pfizer, there are some details where there is no agreement,” Mazzetti said. She added, “this has to do with prices and the delivery schedule” as well as “the waiving of important elements such as … jurisdictional immunity.”

“One indeed needs the vaccine, but it is also true that there are aspects related to aspects of our sovereignty that the country has to protect … it has to do with risk for future generations,” she said. 

She told lawmakers, “we hope that the controversy will be resolved so we will be able to determine when the vaccine will arrive.”
