Two doll figures. and a three-fingered hand said to be evidence of extraterrestrial life was actually made of paper, glue, metal and human and animal bones, forensic experts have concluded.

The items were confiscated by Peruvian customs authorities as cargo bound for Mexico, and then turned over to experts from the Peruvian prosecutor's office.

The findings refute claims by some Mexican residents that the figures came from «an alien center or another planet, and that's it.» this is a complete lie,” said forensic archaeologist Flavio Estrada, who led the analysis.

“The conclusion is simple: these are dolls assembled from the bones of animals from this planet, using modern synthetic glues, so they were not assembled in pre-Hispanic times. times,” Estrada told reporters. “They are not aliens; they are not aliens.”

Experts showed reporters a pair of two-foot dolls dressed in red, orange and green clothes. According to them, studies have shown that the bones of birds, dogs and other animals were used to create the dolls.

Meanwhile, an object said to be a three-fingered alien hand has been X-rayed. Estrada said the “very poorly” shaped hand was created from human bones.

Prosecutors have not yet determined who owns the objects. Officials said Friday only that the intended recipient of the items was a Mexican citizen before they were seized by customs agents in October.

Mexican journalist José Jaime Mossan and some Mexican lawmakers became the target of international ridicule in September when he presented two boxes of alleged mummies found in Peru before the country's congress.

Mr Maussan, along with others, argued that they were «non-human beings that are not part of our earthly environment.» evolution.”

In November, Mr. Maussan returned to the Mexican congress with a group of Peruvian doctors and spent more than three hours arguing the case for “non-human creatures” that he said had been discovered in Peru, where he made similar statements in 2017. A Peruvian prosecutor's report that same year found that the alleged alien bodies were in fact «recently manufactured dolls covered with a mixture of paper and synthetic glue to simulate the presence of skin.»

«These are not the remains of alien ancestors they were trying to represent,” says the 2017 report.
