Peru’s heritage museum showcases history through textiles
The collection includes mummies, tattooed human fragments, musical instruments, dolls, and ceramics – all shut away in vaults.
Peru’s capital is showcasing an unique collection of 3,000-year-old textiles.
Other priceless treasures are also on show in a family-run museum in Lima.
But many more remain hidden away because the family can not afford a bigger building to exhibit them in.
