The Incan Mummies
Volcanoes are pretty frightening, but do you know what makes them even scarier? Finding 3 dead Incan children from 500 years ago frozen and intact, that’s what! In 1999, near the Argentinian volcano of Llullaillaco the discoveries were made. An autopsy indicated that the kids had eaten the raw form of cocaine from cacao leaves. Historians say that their deaths were actually sacrifices, and even go as far as saying that the eldest of the children may have led the others to their death.

The Stone Jars
Not what we would exactly call ‘jars’, but the collection of stone jars in Laos dates all the way back to 500 BC. As many prehistoric discoveries go, a lot of theories have popped up surrounding these. Some claim that giants roamed these parts and stored their alcohol in these jars, whereas others, after finding human remains, claim that they were probably burial pits.
