Huarmey Queen
The Huarmey Queen was an important figure in the Wari culture. These people lived in the coastal areas in the Andes Mountains and the south-central Andes from 700 to 1000 AD. This makes her as old as the Great Pyramid of Giza! They found her in the Ancash region, specifically in El Castillo de Huarmey. It was a well-preserved mausoleum. She was buried there with 57 noblewomen.
