Bizarre ‘alien’ tomb found by Brit investigators in Peru who claim they’ve uncovered a shocking link to the Roswell UFO mystery… but is it all as it seems?

UFO investigators claim that the discovery of mummified ‘aliens’ in a tomb in Peru are linked to the Roswell UFO conspiracy.

British UFO boffins travelled to Cusco in Peru to look into five 1,700 year-old mummies that conspiracy theorists claim look more reptilian than human.

But while they were out there they were told that a “self-folding foil-like metal” was also found in the tomb.

The metal could be the same self-repairing material that UFOlogists claim was found near the crash site in Roswell, in the US state of New Mexico.

He said: “Some of these things are getting out there, and one of these things was apparently just like the Roswell… incident.

“This foil that unfolds itself – some of this was found and sold for only $8,000 to someone in Asia.

He added: “The (Peruvian) government is struggling to contain this problem of tomb raiders… who are getting hold of these artefacts and are being sold across the world on some sort of black market.”

New images of the “alien mummies” were unveiled during a press conference called “The mummies of Nazca” in Peru by Mexican ufologist and journalist Jamie Maussan last month.

This included X-rays of the mummified remains so Maussan could banish claims that they were fake or made of plaster, Ruptly has reported.

Mr Maussan alleges that of the five bodies discovered, three of them had “characteristics that are closer to reptiles than humans”.

He added: “Nobody has proved it is a fraud.

“We are going to present preliminary evidence that will determine in the vision of the media, in the collective vision of the popular conscious, the validity that it has.”

Maussan has claimed carbon dating samples of the body dates between 245 to 410 AD, though the result has not been verified as true.

Footage of the so-called mummified alien was released in June though some were not convinced.

Supposedly filmed in the ancient city of Nazca, Peru, users pointed out the “corpse” looks like it is a half-finished cardboard creation.

The video was posted by website Gaia.com which charges curious users money to view their exclusive paranormal content.

The site claims the extraterrestrial beast’s body was dug up during an excavation of the mysterious caves.

One viewer reported commented: “Something seems off. The corpse looks like it was made of plaster.”
