The race to save the world's oldest mummies 

After thousands of years, either you ascended already, or you won't.

​@@MariaMartinez-researcherI was just about to say something along those lines 😹

Why havent you ascended after thousands of years?

The ascension is thought to happen immediately. The grave disturbance has no effect. Especially, the Pharaohs can see this as a final revenge against their successors, who tried to erase them from history by destroying any tributes/depictions of them. Now people of today will show how they were and reconstruct their past by revealing /fixing the remnants and artifacts.

If you haven’t ascended after a thousand years you got some serious issues letting go. Also, those mummies already had their second death when they are forgotten to history so it’s safe to say those mummies are likely in either “heaven” or living their reincarnated lives already.

Sounds like Facebook... not here😂 And they talk about their ways. So you follow them thinking they aren't the bot.😂 Bye bot

@@thequokkahaslanded321 wut?

"be safe boomers" was that necessary? Be safe gen z

@@lookatmyhands2465 nope. Yall want weapons. Be whatever

@thequokkahaslanded321 The term boomer has nothing to do with weapons. lmao, this isn't fallout new vegas

They made a mistake on how old the mummies are, 'cause if you look it up, you'll find that one of the first mummies found in Egypt dates back to around 3000 BCE, wich equals to about 5000 years ago. Now, the chinchorro had different techniques. Almost 30% of known Chinchorro mummies were mummified naturally, the earliest one dating to 7020 BCE, wich is about 9000 years ago. But the artificial mummies of Chinchorro are believed to have first appeared around 5000 BCE, meaning 7000 years ago, and reached a peak around 3000 BCE. (It's just with the intention of clarifying what they say in the video. I'm chilean and an archeology student, so if you are interested in the topic, I can help you find articles or research on the matter)

​@@valmanzanita13Ah, thank you for clarifying! So they got the 5,000 years old part wrong, they were supposed to say 7,000 years old. I was born in Pakistan. I am fascinated by ancient history. The body remains from the Mehrgarh civilization in Pakistan show dental drilling for cavities performed on people who were still alive, all the back in 7,000 BC! Download PDF News Published: 22 April 2006 Stone age 'proto-dentistry' revealed British Dental Journal volume 200, page425 (2006)Cite this article 4116 Accesses 106 Altmetric Metricsdetails  a) Maxilliary left second molar from an adult male from Mehrgarh, with two drilled holes on the occlusal surface; b) scanning electron micrograph of the negative replicas of the holes; c: microtomographic 3D reconstruction of the tooth with positive virtual casts (top) of the two holes. L. Bondioli (Museum L. Pigorini, Rome) and R. Macchiarelli (Univ. Poitiers) Dental drilling began earlier than previously thought, according to a recent report in Nature (Coppa A, Bondioli L, Cucina A et al., Nature 2006; 440: 755-756). An international team of researchers have discovered eleven drilled molars in a Neolithic graveyard in Pakistan dating from 7,500-9,000 years ago, at least 1,500 years earlier than previous evidence of drilled teeth.

The Tashwinat mummy of a 3-year old baby boy proves that black Saharan people mummified their loved ones before the Nile valley was fully settled after the desertification of the Sahara in 3500 BCE. The ancient people of the Nile valley were a fully black Africans.

I’ll allow it. ✌🏼🤣👍🏼

That's what they are trying to do, more or less. The bodies still buried here and there are at great risk of being carried away by a flash flood, or being caught in the building of a road.

@@MariaMartinez-researcher yeah no thanks and be cursed yeah good luck with that

Did you not watch the video

Chile is in South America. Mexico is in North America, right below you. We are over 8.200 km. far away from you.

Also ground up and used as paint: mummy brown !

@@justjane2070 Urgh!!!

lol

Gonna blaze

They've already died long, long ago....

I read somewhere that our modern diet consists of foods and grains that are too soft, and back when we had to chew harder stuff, people didn't need to get their teeth straightened like we do now.

they didn’t consume foods & drinks that eroded their enamel the same way our modern diets do, they ate natural foods from the earth 🌱. a good diet generally comes with good health, and with both combined comes mostly healthy teeth. comparing their teeth to wild animals in nature, animals consume the foods that they’re meant to have, be it fruit, grass, leaves, meat, etc.., and when they pass away many skeletons are found with most of their teeth. maybe a silly comparison, but there are parallels to why this occurred & continues to occur in the wild, versus why we now need to visit dentists in our modern day. (sugar being one of the main causes!)

They would be proud to have lived in such a way to preserve human history. In a way their deaths mean a lot more than those who were not mummified and preserved.

@@LucasZambranoFilms Death is still death. It's more or less but always suffering. These corpses were human beings just like us today, breathing, smiling, grieving. For science - yes. For entertainment - no! Science isn't only human virtue, there are some others that exactly make us humans, otherwise we're nothing but machines executing their program.

Nope. In Chile, if you find anything archeological/paleontological, you *don't move it from the place where you found it,* and you notify the authorities, so they can send the archeologists/paleontologists to study it and dig it out correctly. It's national property. Other countries have similar laws, so, don't buy stolen stuff. (Also, why would you have in your home a dead body, that without special care will decompose?)

It's a body of a human being so no.
