Peruvian culture officials have weighed in on the so-called alien bodies reported from the Nazca Desert, clarifying that the remains are pre-Columbian in origin. This information circulated after coverage from Latin Noticias highlighted the claim.
According to the ministry’s statement, the material in question has been known since 2016, and no Peruvian scientific body has confirmed any extraterrestrial connection. A criminal investigation has been opened concerning the removal of the remains from Peru and their purported export.
The ministry’s leader indicated that the discovery was uncovered through social media channels, underscoring the role of online networks in sharing unusual finds. The remains, described as fragments of pre-Columbian origin, have prompted an official inquiry into their export from the country and the legal ramifications of their distribution.
Previously, an anthropologist who often speaks about science publicly weighed in on the origins of the so-called alien remains displayed at a gathering in the Mexican Congress. The expert noted the unusual skull shapes but suggested a non-alien explanation for the specimens, pointing to natural or cultural origins rather than extraterrestrial causes.
The discussion has included speculation about the possible evolutionary paths of ancient beings, with some suggesting extreme possibilities. However, the prevailing view among researchers emphasizes conventional explanations grounded in human history and archaeological context rather than anything supernatural or otherworldly.
