For many years Chauchilla cemetery was looted by treasure hunters, who destroyed the place completely, taking away all the treasures the mummies kept in their tombs for centuries. Grave robbers just left behind the corpses, which can be seen today all over the ground. In addition to skulls and bones, visitors also can see several tombs centuries old, as well as long human hairs, ceramic fragments and others remains scattered on the dessert surface.
It is the only archeological site in Peru, in which ancient mummies are seen in their original graves, along with ancientartifacts, dating back to 1000 AD.To see good phots visit mysteryperu.com
