Why is there 200 pounds of raw cotton buried in that part of the world? Who did the Incas trade with that brought them cotton? That is very strange, indeed

The burials are thought to have occurred between 1480 and 1535

This timing suggests that these may have been the victims of the first wave of small pox that swept through the new world after the first europeans arrived.

How long does the small pox virus remain viable when buried like this?
