In northern Peru, archeologists unearthed 33 Incan mummies - believed to have been sacrificed about 600 years ago. The mummies were found at an archeological site known as Chotuna-Chornancap - outside of the coastal city of Chiclayo.

Evidence suggests they were killed and then left outside - before they were buried. Researchers believe they were sacrificed in an effort to stave off natural disasters.
