Surprise discovery made in womb of one of Peru's alleged 'alien' mummies

The mummies, which remain surrounded in controversy, are continuing to yield intriguing discoveries.
Whatever you might think about the mummies - which rose to prominence after controversial UFO researcher Jaime Maussan presented two of them at a formal congress hearing in Mexico City back in 2023 - there is no denying the continued level of interest that seems to surround them.

Supposedly found buried between the Peruvian cities of Palpa and Nazca in 2017, the bodies reportedly contained 'unknown' DNA and were - as Maussan put it - "not from this Earth."

His claims went on to generate a great deal of controversy and debate, with experts slamming his discovery on the basis that the 'aliens' were thought to be little more than human mummies.

Others, meanwhile, claimed that they might not even be real bodies at all.

Now, further investigation of one of the mummies has revealed the discovery of a fetus within its womb.

The find was made by Jois Mantilla - a firm proponent of the notion that the mummies are real - during an analysis of one particular specimen that has been named 'Monserrat'.
"I observed the position of the hands, as if she had wanted to protect her gestating belly," he told Mail Online. "One hand above and one below."

"The abdomen dried out, lost hydration, and became almost flat, but the hands remained in that position."

One of the oddest things about the mummies is their strange, three-fingered hands and anomalous internal organs which indicate - according to Mantilla - "extraterrestrial or reptilian ancestry."

"For now, the only clear anatomical similarity between the fetus and the mother is the tridactyl structure of the hands and feet," he added.

As things stand, it remains unclear whether the mummies are genuine human remains or not.

If they are, then this particular mummy would likely be that of a woman who died around 1,200 years ago while carrying a child.

Exactly what caused her death, however, remains unclear.

We are way past "pathetic" here... this is peak performance in the art of embarrassing denial. ?   @papageorge1 Citing cherry picked lines from ChatGPT to prop up your argument doesnt make it credible... it just shows you are digging for anything that sounds supportive, regardless of the full context or the broader evidence!! You are pulling out selective phrasing while ignoring the total lack of peer reviewed studies, clear debunkings, and scientific consensus! Thats not research...  its just regurgitated confirmation bias in copy/paste form.

Slow down and re-read what you posted, I'll make the crucial part more obvious: You do see the first word there, "Scientists"??  Being an unreasonable uninformed 'old-school' skeptic and all I admittedly did something excessive and asked ChatGPT about Jois Mantilla, since 'Peruvian investigator' sounds decidedly un-scientisty to my biased ears.  Its answer as I posted is that he's not a scientist at all and is a journalist and producer.  Your friend, and by association you, can't even get through something simple argument-wise without contradicting yourselves.

I wont trust anything coning out from S America. They're making up alien stories each day aiming for TV air time coverage.

There several animals with fingerprints, and there are experts that can positively identify which animal's print it is, just with a casual glance. Seeing as though this verification has never been done to this point speaks volumes for the lack of sincerity and scientific know how of the team.

How do you know that hasn't been done?

Because it would a be a significant observation/finding and included in the published results of the alleged scientific examinations conducted. Yet, nothing noted or provided. Just another red flag for this stupidity.

How do you k know this wasn’t addressed somewhere? To know would require considerable searching and investigation efforts.

  Did you know that McDowell himself said that these ridges could be due to preservation issues like skin shrinkage or diatomaceous earth coatings?  That he described the findings as "very odd" but said its "extremely premature" to interpret them as non-human.   https://remarkable-mag.com/experts-say-alien-mummies-do-not-have-human-fingerprints/

Yes, i believe I heard that before. It's evidence for consideration not proof.

Ah, very well then. Clearly by your silly response,  YOU haven't read up what has been provided by Maussan's toadies. There's nothing in what they have released that talks about that specific item, AT ALL.   If you're going to be this lazy and ignorant keep your responses to yourself.
