On Tuesday in the heart of Peru’s capital, Archaeologists found three mummies nearly 1,300 years old from the Wari culture. One of it even had striking blue eyes engraved on its mask.
Other than this, at the Huaca Pucllna location, three funeral bundles of an adult and a sacrificed child’s remains were found along with the two preserved masks and various textiles.
One of the Mummy’s was named ‘the lady of the mask’ by the archeological team, for its painted mask with mysterious large blue eyes.
Isabel Flores who is the head archaeologist said, “The mask had very firm eyes, they seemed very strong, and it shocked the workers as much as the archaeologists.”
Flores further reported, “The funerary tomb is the first Wari burial found intact at the site, where other tombs have been looted.”
According to the archaeologist, the tomb which was newly discovered is typical of Wari burial locations which have multiple burials, bodies bundled in fetal position and the burial of a sacrificial child.
Flores also said, “The sacrifices were very common, particularly of children and young girls. They were part of their ritual offerings to the sea and to the land.”
The Wari culture flourished in Peru's southern highlands from about 500 to 1000 and the empire stretched from Moquegua in the south to Trujillo in the north.
