Another interesting story: Origin of 'six-inch mummy' confirmed

Ata

Tests on a six-inch-long mummified skeleton from Chile confirm that it represents the remains of a newborn with multiple mutations in key genes.

Despite being the size of a foetus, initial tests had suggested the bones were of a child aged six to eight.

"10% [of body]...7,000 beads from a funeral shawl."

I wonder what those were made of. Might suggest that this had already been re-looted when she was officially recovered. What does an ounce of mummy dust go for these days and how many potions does that make?

“Mummy found...”

They were just keeping it under wraps.
