QUÉ SIGNIFICA MUMMY EN INGLÉS

Momia

Mummy

Una momia es un ser humano o un animal fallecido cuya piel y órganos han sido preservados por exposición intencional o accidental a productos químicos, frío extremo, humedad muy baja o falta de aire, de modo que el cuerpo recuperado no se pudre más si se mantiene en fresco y Seco. Algunas autoridades restringen el uso del término a cuerpos deliberadamente embalsamados con productos químicos, pero el uso de la palabra para cubrir cuerpos desecados accidentalmente se remonta al menos al año 1615. Se han encontrado momias de humanos y otros animales en todos los continentes, tanto como resultado de la preservación natural a través de condiciones inusuales, como artefactos culturales. Más de un millón de momias de animales se han encontrado en Egipto, muchos de los cuales son gatos. Además de las momias bien conocidas del Antiguo Egipto, la momificación deliberada era una característica de varias culturas antiguas en áreas de América del Sur y Asia que tienen climas muy secos. La momia deliberada conocida más antigua es una niña, una de las momias de Chinchorro encontradas en el Valle de Camarones, Chile, que data alrededor de 5050 AEC. El cadáver humano más antiguo conocido momificado naturalmente es una cabeza cortada con fecha de 6.000 años de edad, se encuentra en 1936 CE en el sitio llamado Inca Cueva No.

A mummy is a deceased human or animal whose skin and organs have been preserved by either intentional or accidental exposure to chemicals, extreme cold, very low humidity, or lack of air, so that the recovered body does not decay further if kept in cool and dry conditions. Some authorities restrict the use of the term to bodies deliberately embalmed with chemicals, but the use of the word to cover accidentally desiccated bodies goes back to at least 1615 AD. Mummies of humans and other animals have been found on every continent, both as a result of natural preservation through unusual conditions, and as cultural artifacts. Over one million animal mummies have been found in Egypt, many of which are cats. In addition to the well-known mummies of Ancient Egypt, deliberate mummification was a feature of several ancient cultures in areas of South America and Asia which have very dry climates. The oldest known deliberate mummy is a child, one of the Chinchorro mummies found in the Camarones Valley, Chile, which dates around 5050 BCE. The oldest known naturally mummified human corpse is a severed head dated as 6,000 years old, found in 1936 CE at the site named Inca Cueva No.
