The Screamer: The Forensic Truth Behind A Screaming Mummy

In this investigative documentary, we join Dr. Joanne Fletcher and a team of forensic specialists as they examine the "Screamer", a terrifyingly preserved Peruvian mummy found in a museum cellar. Through cutting-edge CT scans, chemical fingerprinting, and carbon dating, the team dismantles the long-held belief that South American mummies were only preserved by nature. The investigation takes a stunning turn when scientists identify a rare conifer resin in the mummy's coating that originates 7,000 miles away in the Southwest Pacific. This discovery suggests that ancient trans-oceanic contact occurred centuries before European explorers arrived, potentially rewriting the history of human migration and global trade in the ancient world. Odyssey is your journey into the world of Ancient History; from the dawn of Mesopotamia to the fall of Rome. We'll be bringing you only the best documentaries that journey into the mysteries and ruins of worlds long lost.
