In the historic city of Guanajuato, in central Mexico, lies one of the world's most unsettling collections of human remains. The Mummies of Guanajuato are a collection of more than a hundred naturally mummified bodies that were exhumed from the Pantheon of Santa Paula municipal cemetery more than a hundred years ago. Unlike the famous mummies of ancient Egypt, these people were not deliberately preserved for the afterlife. Their bodies dried out under unusual burial conditions, and they were discovered decades later when cemetery workers began removing remains from old graves.
