    I've been to the museum when I was 13 or 14 and I loved it not just the mummy's but the whole museum and the history of Mexico. I had so much fun and I loved it. It looks so much bigger now I want to go back. They have some of the oldest Mexican mummy's and a pregnant woman with her baby.

    These souls are restless. Bury them and let them rest in peace.

    In guanajuato not even death could keep you from rent, and if you didn't have enough you had to use your body to make it up.

    I like how you are very respectful to the mummies/people and what happened to them. Very interesting! We just left Guanajuato yesterday but were unaware of the museum!

    It's kind of shameful that they were exhumed because their families didn't pay the tax and now the city is making money by exploiting them..

      "What if the rent is paid again, after a lapse?" inquired
      Joseph.
      "In that time," said the [cemetery] caretaker, "the bodies are reburied for as many years as are paid."
      "Sounds like blackmail," said Joseph.
      The little man shrugged, hands in pockets. "We must live."
      "You are certain no one can pay the one hundred seventy pesos all at once," said Joseph. "So in this way you get
      them for twenty pesos a year, year after year, for maybe thirty years. If they don't pay, you threaten to stand mamacita or little niño in the catacomb."
      "We must live," said the little man.

    You say the museum opened in 1969 but I saw these same mummies in 1966-67. They were all lined up in a room, standing up, leaning against the walls. I remember one of them looked like Abe Lincoln. It was creepy as hell and one of the major highlights of my trip to Mexico.

    • @SpanishandGo
      @SpanishandGo  4 года назад +3

      That's right. But before the museum opened, they were on display in a less official capacity. It's definitely an interesting attraction. Thanks for watching! -Jim

    @shortcutmarketing 3 года назад +6

    You failed to mention. The mummification process is impressive itself, it was only due special geological elements in the area at the time that the bodies were preserved that well. It’s not just random bodies displayed, egiptcians only were able to do this through a hard un-natural process

Seriously take your wifey, girl or boyfriend whoever and share a beautiful moment.
