Episode notes
Chaotic Public Rollout
- The Nazca mummies story unfolded chaotically with press conferences, raids, and a troubled Hollywood presentation.
- Will Brown and others on the ground witnessed mishandling but defended some proponents as not being the original hoaxers.
Grassroots Exposure Versus Institutional Control
- Will argues grassroots exposure prevented the mummies from disappearing into official archives and allowed public scrutiny.
- He worries preservation is imperfect and some specimens are rapidly decaying at the University of Ica.
Require Full Transparency
- Publish scans and data for all specimens, not just the most anomalous ones, to avoid cherry-picking.
- Transparency (scans, DNA, peer review) will strengthen scientific assessment and public trust.
