Dissection of the hands of one of Peru’s most debated “alien mummies” has begun, seen in a spooky new video revealing bones and strange metal structures.
Global controversy has arisen over these now approximately a dozen small peculiar specimens, often called ‘Nazca Tridactyls’ after the region of Peru where they are believed to have been captured by anonymous local ‘huaqueros’ (tomb looters).
Now, doctors have claimed to have removed a “light metal” implant from the palm of the new specimen, a journalist working with the medical professionals involved in the investigation told DailyMail.com.
The short video documents the moment when a doctor carefully removes the alleged “alien implant” from the severed three-fingered hand of the Nazca Tridactyl with tweezers.
Mexican Navy forensic doctor Dr. José Zalce Benítez, the examiner who extracted the metal, said: “It is a very complex metal alloy that requires special knowledge and techniques to be able to achieve it with such quality and purity.”
“It was possible to identify elements such as aluminum, tin, silver, copper, cadmium and osmium, among others, in smaller quantities and percentages,” added Dr. Zalce.
The video also shows what appears to be one of the mummified hands removed to reveal two of its “metacarpal” or “palm” bones.

Dissection has begun in these hands of one of Peru’s macabre and heated “alien mummies,” seen in chilling new videos that reveal two of its apparent “metacarpal” or “palm” bones (above), as well as a metal frame thin and creepy.
“This tridactyl hand, from which I obtained the metal, does not belong to any of the bodies presented in the Mexican Congress,” stressed Dr. Zalce.
‘This hand is part of a series of loose pieces that belong to the place where the Peruvian tridactyl bodies were found,’ clarified the doctor and forensic expert.
The doctor’s research into these unusual and potentially extraterrestrial bodies dates back to his testimony before an open hearing in Mexico’s Congress last year, during which two similar alleged “alien” corpses were presented.
Since that presentation before Congress on September 12, 2023, two different sizes of these supposed ‘alien mummies’ have come under public scrutiny, but the new video examination relates to the smaller, more controversial specimens.
The supposed ‘metal implant’ can be seen as a torn patch of silvery reptilian scales in the new video, as Dr Zalce’s gloved hand tilts it towards the camera.
Journalist Fernando Correa Domínguez explained to DailyMail.com that doctors had carefully rehydrated the hand to better remove the ‘metal implant’.
Initially, Correa noted, ‘they did not see moisture inside the hand, (only) dehydrated skin tissue was observed inside the tendons and muscles.’
Dr. Zalce described the procedure in more detail: ‘We use a forensic technique to protect the tissue and minimize its degradation (…) a special serum that is used for the rehydration of corpses that has very specific concentration percentages.’

“We use sterile swabs with a soft surgical cotton tip to avoid any type of damage or contamination to both the metal sample and the tridactyl hand,” explained Dr. Zalce.
“This technique is used by the FBI and helps recover data or information from relevant evidence in forensic investigations,” said the doctor.
Correa, who took credit for including Dr. Zalce in this project, added that the severed ‘tridactyl’ hand closely resembles the hands present in the specimens presented to the Mexican Congress last year.
That show within the country’s highest legislative body had been led by UFO researcher and announcer Jaime Maussan, Correa’s boss for more than two decades in the television news magazine focused on the paranormal ‘Tercer Milenio’.
“It’s a hand of small bodies,” Correa told DailyMail.com, “like the mummies of Josephina, Victoria and Louise,” as the team has nicknamed them.
These supposed beings, generally just under two feet (60.96 centimeters) long, originated at sites in Peru along with larger, more human-sized specimens, similarly coated in fossils of powdery white algae known as terracotta. diatoms.
Critics, including senior Peruvian officials at the Ministry of Culture, have claimed that the smaller bodies are shady fabrications, based on two specimens confiscated by customs.
Dr. Flavio Estrada, forensic archaeologist at the Institute of Legal Medicine and Forensic Sciences of Peru, concluded the seized bodies. They were horrible dolls‘assembled with animal bones from this planet, with modern synthetic glues’.

“They are not aliens,” Dr. Estrada said after his group’s examination last January. “It’s a completely made-up story.”
But the Colorado lawyer Josh McDowell has told DailyMail.com that these two alleged mummies, which were confiscated by Peruvian customs from the courier company DHL at an airport in Lima, only superficially resemble those presented to the Mexican Congress.
These smuggled specimens, he said, also did not resemble those preserved at the University of Ica in Peru, where many of the Nazca Tridactyls are currently stored.
McDowell said the seized ‘mummies’, Dressed in miniature imitations of traditional Andean costumes, they were nothing more than contraband made by an artist who intended to profit from the ‘Nazca mummy’ fad.
“The artist who made them said so,” he continued.
“There is a way to get definitive answers about what these specimens are through genetic testing and additional forensic examinations,” McDowell emphasized.
‘It would mean a true collaborative effort with a multidisciplinary team of scientists, working with the Peruvian Ministry of Culture, to complete the studies legally, ethically and with respect for Peru’s cultural heritage.’

But whatever the truth behind these two seized “alien mummies,” Correa said the hands dissected by his partners closely match those presented to Mexico’s Congress.
‘Dr. Ricardo Rangel, a molecular geneticist, and Dr. Zalce, a medical expert in forensic sciences, are the two scientists with the most experience in this case,’ he stated.
‘I invited you from the beginning to analyze the bodies of the Nazca mummies.’
Correa noted that Rangel and Zalce’s study of the hand of this specimen closely resembled the internal structure of Maussan’s earlier Nazca bodies. scanned using a non-invasive method similar to x-rayshigh resolution computed tomography.
‘“They both coincided inside the hand,” Correa said.
‘There is anatomical correspondence with this member that comes from the same place where the other specimens were found: a cave in the Peruvian desert,’ he stated.
But even some sympathetic observers and amateur archaeologists of “ancient aliens” online have expressed doubts about the hand shown in the new video.
posters in the Reddit forum r/alienbodies compared the interior seen in the new video of the alien hand to “wet mud and bones” or hastily stuffed “with ground coffee beans.”
“The more I learn about them,” one opined, “the less authentic I think they are.”
For his part, Dr. Rangel, whose previous research work has focused on a form of gene called Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA), has focused most of his studies on DNA samples taken from Nazca mummies during the last years.
In one of his 2023 evaluations of the specimensHe asserted that ‘there is a greater than 50 percent probability that this organism is not related to the living beings known to date on our planet.’
