Chauchilla Cemetery contains prehispanic mummified human remains and archaeological artifacts. It is the only archaeological site in Peru in which ancient mummies are seen in their original graves, along with ancient artifacts, dating back to 1000 AD. The bodies were clothed in embroidered cotton and then painted with a resin and kept in purpose-built tombs made from mud bricks. One of the remarkable features of the mummies is that they have red hair. Located along a dirt road off the Pan-American Highway, 30 kilometres south of the city of Nazca, Peru.
