Who Was Cloud Man? Unearthing An Ancient Peruvian Mummy

Cloud Man, a mummy initially believed to be from the tall Chachapoya people, was actually a shorter, high-status male from the Peruvian coast, dating back to 1100 AD. His elongated skull was a result of ancient surgery, not a battle wound. Groundbreaking chemical analysis revealed he was artificially mummified using rare and distant materials, suggesting he was a shaman—a powerful religious figure who may have used tobacco and insects in his rituals. This discovery sheds new light on South American mummification practices and his community's reverence for him.
