Author: Randolph E. Schmid, Associated Press Source: The Washington Post

Title: THOUSANDS OF INCA MUMMIES DISCOVERED
Thousands of ancient Inca mummies, some bundled together in small groups with their possessions, have been discovered beneath a shantytown near Lima, Peru.
So far, researchers have uncovered the remains of 2,200 individuals. More are thought to remain buried.
One of the bundles included some 300 pounds of raw cotton, the body of an Inca noble and a baby, as well as 70 other items, including food, pottery, animal skins and corn to make a fermented drink known as chicha.
