Tagged: Chicago, Dental, Illinois, MexicoPosted on: August 29th, 2007“Some of Mexico’s most famous dead will head to Cicero in spring for a stay inside the town’s new $50 million municipal center.
The mummies of Guanajuato — legendary in Mexico — are the remains of 119 corpses that have mummified naturally in this dry, hilly region of central Mexico. The mummies were accidental finds: Cemetery workers dug them up after their families stopped paying rent on the plots.”
