DNA Analysis of the Paracas Skulls Proves They Are Not Human

 

 

On the southern coast of Peru lies the desert peninsula of Paracas. This barren landscape is where Peruvian archaeologist Julio Tello made an astounding discovery in 1928. His efforts uncovered a massive and complex graveyard buried under the sand and rocks.

In these tombs Tello found some of the most controversial human(?) remains in history. The bodies had the largest elongated skulls in the world and have since been called the Paracas skulls. Tello found a total of more than 300 skulls and they have been dated at around 3,000 years old. A recent DNA analysis performed on some of these skulls has presented amazing results that could challenge the current perspective of the human evolutionary tree.

Several other cultures have practiced skull elongation or deformation but the techniques they used produced different results. Certain South American tribes used to bind infants’ skulls in order to change their shape. Binding the head between pieces of wood modified the appearance of skulls by applying constant pressure over a long period of time. This type of cranial deformation changed the shape but it did not alter the size, weight or cranial volume; these are all standard characteristics of a regular human skull.

The Paracas skulls are different however. Since their craniums are 25% larger and 60% heavier than regular human skulls, researchers strongly believe that they couldn’t have been modified through binding. They are also structurally different and only have one parietal plate as opposed to the two normally found in human skulls. These differences have deepened the decade-old mystery around the Paracas skulls and researchers haven’t been able to explain their origins.

 

The director of the Paracas History Museum has sent samples from 5 skulls to undergo genetic testing. The samples consisted of hair, skin, teeth and fragments of skull bones. The genetic laboratory was not informed about the samples’ origins in order to avoid biased or influenced results. The results were fascinating.

The mitochondrial DNA (inherited from the mother) presented mutations unknown to any man, primate or any other animal. The mutations suggested we are dealing with a completely new human-like being, very distant from Homo sapiens, Neanderthals or Denisovans. The Paracas individuals were so biologically different from humans they wouldn’t have been able to interbreed. “I am not sure it will even fit into the known evolutionary tree”, one geneticist added.

The implications of this discovery are huge. Who were the mysterious Paracas people? Did they evolve here on Earth on a path so different from us that they ended up looking drastically different? If not, where did they come from? Are any of them left?

This breakthrough brings up more questions than it answers but counts as another piece of evidence suggesting that we are not alone.

      Ouach, one month they are not and the other they are???

    • Wretched Infidel

      This is highly fascinating. And also scary and so disgusting! Thank you! :D

    • Wretched Infidel

      And it takes a lot to scare ME!!!!~Lol

      Loathesome is the word… they are loathesome aren’t they

      Seriously? The very first one they show and talk about…anyone can see that the top of the skull they are discussing at 48 seconds doesn’t belong with the rest. It’s a different color, and it doesn’t fit. I’m going to have a hard time un-pausing it, now, to watch the rest. That’s a very bad way to start a video on this subject, IMO.

    • Geeper

      So no peer review, just the director of the Paracas History Museum informally asking some scientists and putting out a press release to advertise his museum.

    • Mayhem

      Researchers (equals Navarro and Foerster neither of whom are qualified in Anatomy) strongly believe that an un-named laboratory will explain the mystery by suggesting that science has no other examples of genetic mutation.

      Always a freaking mystery, innit, and us dumb plebs just wouldn’t understand. Convenient too, i would suggest, that we can’t check the results with the lab.

      Type “paracas skulls” into your favourite search engine and half the first page are debunks. Of the websites that do support this myth none are in any way reputable. Read the article and compare it to my first sentence and notice i’m quoting from it and i ask ya’ll, to consider, is that how science speaks? I see a little faith and a whole lot of not knowing but that might just be me not understanding the deeper mysteries :lol:

    • SBM1964

      I’m sure when Muttchelle Obama’s skull is analyzed one day it will turn out it’s not human either.

    • Redeemer

      Interesting and it ties in with this diabolical experiment!
