Lesser known than Egyptian mummies, Chinchorro mummification consisted of several different techniques due to their differing climate. The black mummy technique involved taking the dead person's body apart, discarding the soft tissue, treating it, and reassembling it. The body was heat-dried, and the flesh and tissue were completely stripped from the bone by using tools. Evidence exists that the bones were dried by hot ashes or coal. Then, the skin was refitted to the body, sometimes in smaller pieces, sometimes replaced by sea lion skin, and was finally painted with a black manganese. It is unknown exactly why the Chinchorro mummified their remains. Some theories reason that it helped the soul survive, others that mummies provided a gateway or link to the afterlife.
