Additional notes submitted by Dew parsons in May 2019: The exhibits have been moved to a new museum on the north western outskirts of the town, the old museum buildings having been demolished. Many of the exhibits are in storage although the new museum contains some excellent material which is very well presented. The mummy in the photo shown in the original posting of thisn site was not on display when I visited. The location of the museum is approximate as maps on the internet still show the old site.
Note: Chilean mummies reveal ancient nicotine and hallucinogen habit (Warning: graphic images)
