The case of Peru’s mysterious ‘alien mummies’ continues to deepen after the unveiling of two new creatures named Paloma and Antonio.
The corpses were said to have been found in the Nazca desert, where the first mummy was uncovered seven years ago by journalist and ufologist Jaime Maussan.
Paloma and Antonio share the same three fingers as previous mummies, but feature small, slanted eyes and are described as being the size of ‘a short adult.’
The mummies were recently analyzed by Dr David Ruiz Vela, former president of Peru’s Medical Association, who determined that they have human-like organs with a visible brain structure.
Dr. Ruiz claimed that Antonio had a stab wound in his chest, while Paloma showed evidence of hair— a first among the mummies. Both are said to be 1,500 years old.
Researchers have suggested that the bodies were fossilized by algae, which helped preserve them, along with a highly toxic adhesive that ‘does not match those of the time.’
Maussan has presented roughly a dozen of these bodies, showcasing many of them in front of Mexico’s Congress as evidence of alien beings that once walked the Earth.
While Maussan has stood firm in his claims, experts remain convinced that the mummies are nothing more than dolls manipulated by grave robbers.

Experts claimed that Antonio had a stab wound in his chest
In 2018, one year after the discovery was announced, scientists concluded from at least four independent analyses of DNA samples and other mummy materials that they were modified, pre-Columbian mummies.
But the claims have not stopped Maussan and other researchers in their tracks.
The latest discoveries are unlike the previous mummies Maussan has found.
Paloma and Antonio differ in facial features and size, along with wounds that were found on Antonio.
‘He has a stab that broke his ribs on the left side of his chest, penetrating the chest, abdomen, liver and completely perforating him inside,’ Dr Ruiz Vela said in a video.
He believes that Paloma lived for up to 60 years.
‘This is the first time we’ve found a dried body with hair, hair with copper-colored characteristics,’ said Dr Ruiz Vela.
Jois Mantilla a journalist who has become dedicated to proving the mummies are real said that ‘more will be revealed in 2025’ about the creatures, specifically the secret place for where the bodies have been recovered.

The location has been kept from the public to keep looters at bay, researchers have said.
Mantilla said that previously found mummies has four different types of DNA, including a human from Asia, two apeds from Africa and an unknown.
‘That unknown DNA is probably what makes it have the characteristics of three fingers, he said.
‘I have a theory that this DNA is the DNA of its creators. We humans do not have the technological capacity to combine DNA nor with all the money in the world can we manage to mix an ape, a chimpanzee with a human.’
Mantilla then claimed these creatures were created in a lab at least 1,800 years ago.
A recent imaging analysis on one of the humanoids named ‘Maria’ found it has biological similarities to that of a human – but with ‘many morphological and anatomical structural differences.’

The creature’s bones were observed to flow smoothly under the mummified casing, in a way that is found throughout the human body, and its elongated skull showed no signs of artificial cranial deformation.
The team was also able to date the mummy to between 240AD and 383AD, ‘indicating its coexistence with the ancient Nazca civilization,’ they shared in the study.
The team conducted magnification examination, allowing them to peer inside and see that the mummy lacked hair and external ears – it only had openings of the ear canals.
‘The most notable feature of the skull is its significant elongation, without external signs of cranial compression from external agents,’ reads the study published in the Journal of Social and Environmental Management.
‘Specifically, it is the cranial vault that shows an atypical growth and development, resembling a dolichocephalic phenotype.
Three-fingered ‘ alien mummies’ uncovered in Peru have largely been dismissed as a hoax by the scientific community, but a new study has suggested otherwise. A 2023 study analyzed one of the mummies named Maria
The elongated skull showed no signs of artificial cranial deformation and was 30 percent larger than that of a normal human
‘Additionally, the cranial volume is 30 percent larger than that of a normal human.’
Scans of the internal creature revealed it had bulging eyes and protruding upper and lower jaws.
Maussan turned Mexico’s Congress into a circus when he brought two mummies to argue his case that they are not of this world.
He ushered in a team of researchers who performed a DNA analysis on the figures that showed 30 percent is ‘not from any known species’ and stated that the figures were ‘authentic,’ comprising a single skeleton.
The figures underwent carbon dating by the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), which determined the bodies had three-fingered hands, no teeth and were more than 1,000 years old, Maussan claimed.
‘These specimens are not part of our terrestrial evolution […] These aren’t beings that were found after a UFO wreckage,’ Maussan said to Congress in September.
‘They were found in diatom [algae] mines and were later fossilized.’
A 2023 analysis claimed the DNA of tiny corpses is not human but of an ‘unknown species’
The nation’s Congress was turned into a circus last year as controversial UFO enthusiast and journalist Jaime Maussan has held court several times to prove the mummified remains found in Peru are extraterrestrial life
He later added: ‘Whether they are aliens or not, we don’t know, but they were intelligent and they lived with us. They should rewrite history.’
‘We are not alone in this vast universe; we should embrace this reality.’
Maussan brought a squad of medical experts who carried in a letter signed by 11 researchers from San Luis Gonzaga National University in Ica, Peru, declaring the same.
Anthropologist Roger Zuniga of San Luis Gonzaga National University in Ica Peru said Tuesday: ‘There was absolutely no human intervention in the physical and biological formation of these beings.’
However, the letter made clear that the team was not implying the bodies were ‘extraterrestrial’ but did not answer where the remains originated.
Argentine surgeon Celestino Adolfo Piotto also took the stand, claiming he reviewed the results of testing done on the bodies and made the bizarre case that ‘they were an evolved version of today’s human beings, calling them ‘our descendants.’
But ufologist Will Galison – a close friend of the archaeologist who first analyzed the supposed ‘aliens’ – said he believes the ‘corpses’ are dummies that are 1,000 years old.
Galison said they may have been made from animal remains a millennia ago, possibly for ritual purposes, with the heads bearing a ‘remarkable similarity’ to alpaca skulls.
