CONTENT: Thousands of years before Egyptians mummified their dead elite, the South American Chinchorros performed elaborate mummification rituals for deceased members of every level and age of their society. The Chinchorros are exceptional for the sheer number of known mummies-nearly 200-and the variety and complexity of their mummification techniques. Although first discovered in 1917, the Chinchorro mummies are little known throughout the world and most literature about them is in Spanish. This book highlights these remains, offers new interpretations of Chinchorro mortuary practices, and reconstructs this culture's daily life of 8, 000 years ago.
