Incan capacocha mummy of a seven-year-old boy, dated to around 1500 AD
The Aconcagua mummy is an Incan capacocha mummy of a seven-year-old boy, dated to around the year 1500.[1] The mummy is well-preserved, due to the extreme cold and dry conditions of its high altitude burial location.[2] The frozen mummy was discovered by hikers in 1985 at 5,300 m (17,400 ft) on Aconcagua in Mendoza, Argentina.[1][2]
