The Lady of Cao
Researchers were conducting studies in Peru’s El Brujo region well before 1990. However, it wasn’t until 2005 that they were able to track down the Lady of Cao. This woman, who is assumed to have died about 400, wore plain clothing. Based on her features, experts assume she was Moche. Because she was buried with a range of artifacts, they believe she belonged to the aristocratic class.
What The Lady Of Cao Really Looked Like
The remains were taken to an El Brujo museum and stored in a climate-controlled environment shortly after her discovery. She can be seen through a magnifying glass. With this rendering, they were able to bring her back, albeit it is still unclear what her place in society is. They believe she was in her late twenties when she died. Some believe she was a human sacrifice, but others do not.
