"There's a problem with the mummies at the University of Tarapacá's archaeological museum in northern Chile."

"They're turning into a black oozy substance."

"Harvard University's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences says scientists have found that Chile's famous 7,000-year-old Chinchorro mummies are being eaten by bacteria — and that climate change could be the culprit."

"Nearly 120 mummies housed at the university's museum near the city of Arica are affected. The Harvard researchers were called in to examine the rotting mummies and found that the region's increasing humidity is allowing microbes to flourish."
