So that's that's the source I got on the taxidermy.

And I mean, that kind of just makes sense, right?

Like we've we're seeing the images here.

If these are fake, which I believe they are.

I mean, this isn't just some random doing that.

You know what I mean, George?

So the government of Peru has actually, from my knowledge, only had possession temporarily of Maria at one point when the Ministry of Culture made a deal with the University of Ica, which is holding a lot of these, that they, you know, in good faith,

Let us just scan the body with, you know, I don't know what type of scanner they had, and then we'll return it.

Other than that, I don't believe the government actually does have possession of any of these.

I could be wrong on that, but I believe that the possession is currently with the University of Ica and then the Huacheros.

Some of them have been donated to the University of Ica.

And then also buyers, private collectors.

No, I'm sorry, because I'd rather have you talk, Dr. Proctor.

You know a lot about this, but I just want to make one point here on a double standard with the mummy proponents.

Steve Merritt helps facilitate a DNA test on Maria's fingers, and the DNA test found that there was multiple different types of specimens maybe in that hand, but it was dismissed because of contamination.

But when something pops up that says, you know, there's 70 percent is showing Homo sapien and then 30 percent, you know, kind of unknown.

All of a sudden that unknown is really highlighted.

You know, there's there's ways to twist the narrative.

So with the contamination with Steve Mara's DNA test pushed to the wayside with this other one, you know, 30 percent unknown.

What does that mean?
