THE
TIMES WEDNESDAY APRIL 10 2002
From Oliver August
The Inca prepared for afterlife by burying cooking utensils,
food, grooming products and personal effects with the departed.
1
The Cotton King’s cloth wrapping indicates nobility
2
Coca leaves, bean pods and sweet potatoes
3
A Mace, a weapon that signified a powerful warrior
4
A mummified baby, perhaps related to the Cotton King
5
Oyster shells, upper-class sandals, and an object that may be
a headband or a sling
