Three months after Mexican lawmakers made international headlines for gathering to hear about the supposed discovery of “non-human beings” in Peru, forensic experts have announced that the mummified creatures touted as “extraterrestrial” were actually just dolls.
The experts shared their findings at a press conference on Friday, revealing that the objects which some had believed were two alien corpses were made of craft materials. At a press conference at the Archaeology Museum in Lima, Peru forensic archaeologist Flavio Estrada said that “they are not extraterrestrials; they are not aliens,” and concluded that any claims of their other worldly origins are “totally false.”
According to forensic investigators, the mysterious figures featuring elongated heads and three-fingered hands are dolls made of distinctly Earthly materials, such as paper, glue, metal, and bones. When X-rayed, experts discovered that the dolls’ strange three-fingered hands were made of human bones. One of the dolls was all dressed up for the big press conference, in a colorful dress and cloak.
