The mystery surrounding Peru’s ‘alien mummies’ has deepened after an attorney discovered that these humanoid, three-fingered creatures have “straight” fingerprints, unlike those of humans. Defense attorney and former Colorado prosecutor Joshua McDowell, along with three independent forensic medical examiners from the United States, examined one of these unusual bodies, named “Maria.” They were stunned to find that the fingerprints of these alleged alien corpses featured perfectly straight lines. Speaking to The Daily Mail, McDowell remarked, “These were not traditional human fingerprint patterns,” reports wionews.com. “We did not see any loops or whorls on the prints of the fingers or on the toes. I’m a former prosecutor. I’m a criminal defence attorney. I’ve seen lots of fingerprints. And these were not classic fingerprints,” he said. Speaking to The Daily Mail, attorney Joshua McDowell said, “These were not traditional human fingerprint patterns.” The mummy, nicknamed Maria, was one of six mummies found in a tomb in Nazca, a city in southern Peru. “We did not see any loops or whorls on the prints of the fingers or on the toes. I’m a former prosecutor. I’m a criminal defence attorney. I’ve seen lots of fingerprints. And these were not classic fingerprints,” he said. “However, on the fingers that were exposed, the epidermal ridges I saw appeared to be in mostly straight lines,” McDowell said. Although nothing has been determined officially about what exactly these humanoid bodies are, still McDowell has been spending hours resolving this case. These 4-foot tall “alien” species, who are called “the Nazca mummies” because they were found in the Nazca region of Peru, have been making headlines for having three fingers in their hands and elongated heads. Maussan has time and again claimed that they are aliens, a theory which has not been accepted by government officials and scientists who are calling it a man-man hoax. Peruvian authorities in January claimed that they were “dolls” which have been patched together using human and animal bones, metal, glue and paper. “They are not extraterrestrials; they are not aliens,” said forensic archaeologist Flavio Estrada, while speaking to the reporters.
