Researchers at a Pennsylvania museum are hoping to bring "life" to a more than 2,000-year-old Peruvian mummy that has been locked away in storage for years. In order to uncover hidden secrets about the mummy, which was donated to the Everhart Museum in Scranton roughly a century ago, museum officials decided to turn to modern technology. According to the Everhart Museum, the mummy is likely a male teenager and stands at 5 feet tall — average height for a Peruvian during that era. While there's plenty more to explore about the mummy, researchers agreed this was a successful start. “Mummies have long been fascinating,” Aurore Giguet, executive director of the Everhart Museum, said in a statement.
