Display mummy 500 year old virgin

Hundreds of people flocked to the Salta Museum, Argentina, to admire the mummy of a 15-year-old Inca girl who was dropped from a volcano as a sacrifice 500 years ago.

In 1999, archaeologists stumbled upon three frozen, still-dead corpses on the Llullaillaco volcano. It was 3 children, a 15-year-old girl, a 6-year-old boy and another 7-year-old girl. However, after a long time of research, until yesterday 7/9, this unique archaeological work was officially on display.

When conducting research and examination, scientists confirmed that these children were native speakers of the Inca dynasty in Argentina 500 years ago.

The deaths of these three children were explained by scientists because of the tradition of offering male and female copper to sacrifice god after every Inca harvest. As usual, after every bumper crop, the Inca farmer must give thanks to the gods by ' living a few' children.

The children are dressed well, put on gorgeous jewelry and drunk. Once asleep, a group of Incas and priests will carry the 'offerings' to the top of the mountain with a height of about 6 - 7 km, which is covered by ice and cold wind and then left there to die.

Here are the pictures of the mummy virgin left on top of the mountain:

Mr. Gabriel Miremont, Director of the Salta Museum in Argentina said: 'Within just one morning more than 700 people came to our museum to admire this virgin mummy. I believe that within the next few days, the museum will attract a large number of visitors ".

At the museum in Salta, the virgin mummy is placed in a cold glass cage, the heat pouring at an icy level just like when scientists found it on a mountain top. The remaining two mummies are still under study, not yet on display.
