Description

Original caption:

En Arica están las momias más antiguas del mundo, pertenecen a la Cultura Chinchorro con diez mil años de antigüedad. Hace relativamente poco tiempo se encontraron en un sitio en el centro de la ciudad nuevos cuerpos momificados, corresponden a un periodo tardío de la cultura Chinchorro, así que son un poco más "jóvenes", tienen aproximadamente 9.500 años. Estas imágenes son de este lugar que pronto se convertirá en un museo in situ, para mi fue muy sobrecogedor estar ahí. Los chinchorros preparaban esmeradamente a sus muertos para que continuaran el camino hacia otra vida y lo lograron, porque después de diez mil años están presentes...
