A Chinchorro Mummy from South America. The black mask is the identifying feature. It shows the age of the mummy. This process of mummification is one of the oldest and is quite a procedure. Although this appears to be a child it is in fact an adult. I am fasinated by the death practices of the world. I find they have an interesting history and since I have an obsession with mythology I think its a natural interest for me. OK! So i'm just morbid. This piece is Sold.
