A bit lugubrious to present, the oldest mummies in the world, the Chinchorro mummies! The Chinchorro mummy dates from around 5050 BC, 2000 years before the Egyptian mummies. The Chinchorro culture lived on these coasts between 10000 and 4000 years ago and made themselves immortal by mummifying their dead. We learned a lot of this indigenous culture.
