Research team discovers head of mummy with hair in Peru. The mummy is more than 800 years old.

She lay more than two meters deep in the earth in a grave. The head, separated from the rest of the body, is a child between the ages of 12 and 13. Whether it was a boy or a girl is not yet clear. The child is likely to have lived between 1,200 and 1,400 AD and belonged to the Lima or Ichma civilization, according to archaeologists.
