After more tests, the Paracas skulls became even more mysterious

The director of the Paracas Museum of History sent five Paracas skulls for genetic testing, and the results were very interesting. Samples of hair, teeth, skin and small pieces of skull bones showed amazing details that have added to the mystery of these strange skulls. The genetic lab where the samples were sent did not know where the skulls came from so as not to “influence the results.”

The skulls’ DNA doesn’t match that of any living species on earth

Mitochondrial DNA, which comes from the mother, showed interesting mutations that had never been seen in humans, primates, or other animals on earth. Researchers think that the Paracas skull samples came from a whole new kind of “human” that was very different from Homo sapiens, Neanderthals, and Denisovans. The tests done on the Star Child Skull, which was found in 1930 in a mine tunnel about 100 miles southwest of Chihuahua, Mexico, produced the same results.

Paracas skulls are believed to belong to a species of people who weren’t human

People say that the Paracas skulls show people who were so different from humans that we could not have had children with them. The geneticist wrote, “I’m not sure this fits into the known evolutionary tree.”

The origins of these skulls still remain a mystery

Who were these unknown people? Did they come from different places on earth? What made them so different from other people in such a big way? And is it possible that these beings are not from earth? These theories can’t be ruled out based on what is known now. Researchers, historians, and scientists still can’t figure out the mystery of the origins of the Paracas skulls. But one thing is for sure: these skulls might be able to answer the question of whether or not humans are alone in the universe after all.
