La Cultura Chinchorro es una cultura de pescadores que partió habitando la costa del desierto de Atacama hace nueve mil años, y que alrededor del año 5000 a.C. comenzó a momificar intencionalmente a sus difuntos. El Dr. Arriaza nos narra la vida de su gente, sus elaboradas técnicas de momificación, el significado social de sus ritos mortuorios y las enfermedades que los afligían. Gracias a los documentales de televisión y a las publicaciones del Dr. Arriaza y sus colaboradores las momias Chinchorro han perdido su anonimato.
