This superb museum has as its focus the mummified bodies of three young children known as the 'Llullaillaco Children', named after a nearby volcano where they were found. There was only one mummified child on display when we visited and I understand that this is done so as to help preserve their bodies. I found the display very touching and done in a sensitive manner. The artefacts that have been discovered with the children's bodies are exquisite in their workmanship. This is one of the best museums I have visited.
