The remains of the dead should not be used as props for UFO promoters and entertainers like Maussan and Gaia. We've had the Star Child, Greer's Sirius "Atacama Humanoid," and when challenged about the BeWitness Slides, Maussan offered a bounty for the child's body itself.
Forensic Anthropologists should be in charge of this kind of thing. Once the science is done, if there's anything valid, share it with the world.

The Skull
Very nice work. I'm not my professor, however...
Judging from the teeth, this is the x-ray of an adult human. The forehead may have been shaped but it's not that unusual. I did force myself to watch part of the video (really bad because you have to keep rewinding to see details and catch quotes.)

They removed the big toe ...and when they rotate the body (5:25 or so) you can see where the pinky was removed as well. They appear to have removed the cuneiform bones and positioned the phalanges next to the talus and calcaneus. (large picture of foot bones with labels here)
upper body
That's all human anatomy. So it appears they made a fake from a real human skeleton or mummy. But it's not alien.

Pre-Columbian and certainly in range... but given the other errors there (mummies are NOT bodies with their internal organs removed as one woman claimed) I don't know that I'd believe it.
the closes so far that i see in a genetic deformity is that could relate too this
MARFANS Syndrome
No, it's not that. Marfan Syndrome would leave all the bones in place. It also deforms the skull and there might be some problems with the spine. I think that each of the cases should be looked at in separate threads. I find it confusing to know what's associated with what, since the fake hand and the plaster mummy both appear to be under consideration.
But I'm easily confused.

When the thread about the hand came about, I proposed that it could be the bones from a waterfowl's foot:
Regardless, the entire skeleton (mummified or not) is, at the very least, interesting. I'll be interested to see what results are found, and then if they are intriguing, can the results be replicated (or even be allowed to be replicated)?
Thanks for the thread. If nothing else, it's informative to see how many people have formed massive biases against certain people and immediately reject any real investigation into something because of said biases. If the entire world worked this way, we would have gridlock in government and hatred being spewed everywhere that we looked.
Oh, wait...I guess it's just par for the current course of human nature. I'm intrigued, even if skeptical.

There definitely seems to been some weird deformities/mutations going on with certain ancient populations maybe due to radiation, incest or perhaps Interbreeding , who knows I've heard of a genetic mutation that causes 6 fingers but not 3 , It is impossible for a tool making primates to evolve 3 fingers it it doesn't serve any evolutionary purpose. The only thing that makes sense is that this was simply a genetic deformity. There could be also be a chance that a bunch of hoaxers attached orangutan fingers to the mummy. Then again who knows
1. The alien mummy is in a typical fetal position with a deformed cranium that is a result of traditional practices of pre-Columbian cultures. A preliminary investigation by the “alien investigators” would have revealed that pre-Columbian cultures practiced deformation of the cranium and even practiced trepanation, an early form of brain surgery.
2. It is unlikely from an evolutionary perspective that if this was a separate creature with three hand and feet digits that it would have evolved from a body that is otherwise identical to a human; we would likely see other anatomical changes in the arm bones, hands, legs, and feet that are observed in other creatures with three digits.
3. These types of “alien mummies” are made with remains of both human and animal bones, in the majority of cases combined. The parts that are human are apparently real and pass the carbon dating as well as the “gray skin” test that is used in the video. This particular “mummy” has had two of its fingers and toes removed and the three remainders have been extended using extra phalange bones.
The Ministry of Culture has also proclaimed about the mummified corpse. They stated that it was not possible to determine the character of the site of excavation (archaeological or not) because the site is unknown to them and that it was not possible to determine if the specimens (if they are, in fact, real) from the video are of an alien or archaeological character. In technical terms, they basically told the public that nothing of scientific truth can be concluded about the mummified corpse from the video.
I couldn’t find one piece of that (white mummy) body that looked like it was put together (with hoax glue). There are certain marks on the bone of how that would happen.’”

Linda: Is it true that you have found multiple bodies mummified like the first one?
Melissa: We have. We have found multiple bodies and I think the next Gaia.com update coming out is going to show and explain some of those other bodies that have been found. But I can’t share the details yet.
Linda: How many bodies and are they all the same?
Melissa: They are different. I can’t really comment on how many bodies have been found, but there are more than one and they are a little bit different than the one in the first Gaia promo.
Linda: Do they all have three long fingers?
Melissa: They do, which relates them even though they are slightly different.
But she said, ‘I couldn’t find one piece of that (white mummy) body that looked like it was put together.
There are certain marks on the bone of how that would happen.’ I’m not a muscular skeletal radiologist, but according to her you can tell:
1) if the bone is fake, it has a different lightness to it in the CATSCANS. It looks different than the other bones.
2) There are also markings that would mean the bones could be fake. There wasn’t any of that.
3) Also, the hand is a pretty complicated mechanism and she was explaining that if someone really replicated this 3-fingered hand, they would have to know so much about anatomy that they would have to be doing that for a living.
She said they have every little tiny piece of that hand in there, like even to the tip, which is just like a human finger (except the long 3-fingered hand at Nazca has 6 joints). The tip is just a little bone that sits at the end of your finger. She was just blown away by the fact that she couldn’t really find something that said to her this could be fake.”

They're not going to let a forensic anthropologist anywhere near those remains. I taught anatomy labs for one of the best forensic anthropologists in Texas. They wouldn't let him anywhere near those laughable frauds.

Here's an interview with José de Jesús Zalce Benítez, Forensic Expert and Principal of the Forensic Department of the Mexican Navy, who has participated in several of the studies of the Mummies.
You mean you're actually trying to perform an analysis of an anatomy presented in pictures from a Youtube video?
Why not wait until the 11th of July, and you'll have X-rays, MRI scans and CT scans, plus C-14 and DNA results from 10 different laboratories. Wouldn't that be a more professional approach?

I wonder how credible those credentials are. I did google him... and he's known in the Spanish UFO circles He describes himself as a forensics expert (at least this is what he's told the community) nor do I find an "Escuela Nacional de Medicina Forense de México" associated with any Mexican university or government organization.

I'll be honest. While I'm better at anatomy than most and have taught human anatomy, I would not present myself as a forensic expert. That's an entirely different kettle of fish than straight medical studies (I'm not a medical doctor, by the way).

There are multiple cultures that mummified people... the Chinchorro mummies (not the one in your picture) predate Egyptian mummification byseveral thousand years. This culture died out long before the Egyptians and they didn't practice head binding.
The one that you have pictured is someone who died only 500 years ago and was a sacrifice.
The people from Nazca who practiced head binding lived after the collapse of the Egyptian empire and after they quit mummifying people. Technically these are mostly skeletal remains.

Only people who have NOT studied the mummies and not seen the any of the scans and test results say it's fake.
So, half a dozen MDs who have studied the mummies state they are authentic mummies and authentic biological entities (without claiming to know what they are), and an unknown number of anonymous people with unknown credentials who have not studied the mummies claim it's a fake.
What are we to do with that? Take it seriously or ridicule it?
