The mummy, which is approximately 600 to 800 years old, was discovered in the backpack of a courier who worked for a delivery company in the Puno region, near Bolivia.

The police detained three young people who were transporting her.

The incident happened when they were drinking alcoholic beverages.

Ancient Origins writes about it.

The courier had a box for delivery from the company.

In it, the police found human remains wrapped in soft skin, like mummies, placed in the position of an embryo.

Molodyk called the mummy "his spiritual friend", because he lived with her for some time.

The remains themselves supposedly belonged to his father and were usually in a box near the TV.

How exactly the mummy ended up in him is not known for sure.

The Ministry of Culture said that the remains, classified as historical property, had been identified.

This is a mummified adult male, probably from the eastern region of Puno.

Previously, he was 45 years old, and his height was about 1.51 m.

According to experts, the remains were about 800 years old, and they came from the Patambuco area.

It is believed that the courier's family owned them for about 30 years.

The police confiscated the mummy and handed it over to the ministry.

The courier himself and his friends have been detained and are under investigation due to their connection with alleged crimes against the country's cultural heritage.

It will be recalled that a 76-year-old man was arrested in the USA, who hid his sister's

corpse

in his house for a long time .
