A Mummified Little Person? Cabinet of Wonders
From the Fortean news of the day: A 14-inch long mummy, discovered in Casper, WY, in 1932, has been pointed to as a possible example of the Little People the Native Americans said inhabited the forests of the New World. Dale Drinnon and Dr. Karl Shuker have taken opposite sides in the argument over whether the mummy is an adult or just an example of a deformed fetus. With images. Meanwhile, more than mummified remains are the subject of A Human Bone-stealing Cult Loose in Venezuela? Elsewhere, Loren Coleman sees "twilight language" in what a woman assailant was wearing during her attack on a religious leader, as seen in Woman in Red Attacks Pope. Does the attack portend the coming fulfillment of a prophecy? With video. There's also news today that a recent Fortean mystery has a more "moondane" explanation, as reported in Mystery Stink Riddle Solved.
