They belong to the Chiribaya Culture (900-1100 AD). The outstanding preservation of the mummified animals gave rise to the idea of a paleoparasitological analysis. In the fur, numerous well preserved ectoparasites (lice, fleas, mites) could be recovered. Generally, ectoparasite remains are rarely found among archeological material. This is the first account of an extensive ectoparasitological analysis of animal mummies in Peru. A modified technique for recovery and preservation of the ectoparasites has been developed.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-2</style></issue><accession-num><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">41999</style></accession-num><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal</style></notes></record></records></xml>
