The mummy of a little girl, whose name was Rosalia Lombardo (Rosalia Lombardo), puts scientists in a deadlock.
All because her eyes blink a few times a day.
This girl is really dead (died of pneumonia in 1920), but for some reason it is blinking?
girl mummy
Father Rosalia Lombardo decided to embalm her before burial in the catacombs of the Capuchins in Palermo, Sicily.
The work was so well done that when researchers discovered the mummified body, called it the "Sleeping Beauty."
Indeed, the child is like a two-year dormant girl.
Scientists have tried to discover the secret of this embalming techniques and installed a video camera on the sarcophagus Rosalia. The camera captured a strange phenomenon: the mummy eyes opened and closed several times during the day.
optical Illusions
The curator of the catacombs of the Capuchin said this strange phenomenon as nothing more than an optical illusion created by the play of light that enters through the side windows.
However, the mummy has been preserved in perfect condition for many years, no one even gives answers.
Manufactures its Sicilian taxidermist and embalmer Salafia, who died in 1933. No record was kept of the chemicals used in its conservation.
