Tridactyl Specimen Profile


Discovering the Tridactyls


Presenting The Scientific Research Findings to the World

In September and November 2023, we presented the tridactyl specimens in historic hearings before the Mexican Congress, and in November 2024, before the Peruvian Congress. These presentations, initiated by investigative journalist Jaime Maussan, marked a milestone in scientific research, bringing these unprecedented findings to the global stage. This website aims to release our scientific evidence and raw medical files to promote transparency and advance research.

About the Discovery


The discovery of the tridactyl specimens has been a gradual process involving scientists, institutions, and international collaborations. Below is a year-by-year summary:

  • 2015: Leandro Benedicto Rivera Sarmiento (a.k.a. "Mario Peruano") apparently discovers a cave or tunnel system in the Peruvian desert containing tridactyl specimens, complete bodies, and artifacts. Yet to be verified.
  • 2016: The Instituto Inkarri begins efforts to find scientists willing to study the findings. In collaboration with Peruvian doctors, small specimens are examined, and no fraud is detected.
  • 2017: Thierry Jamin and his team analyze the specimens, including "Maria," "Josefina," and "Alberto." X-rays, CT scans, and carbon dating are conducted, revealing ages of up to 1,700 years.
  • 2018: Advanced studies confirm unique characteristics, such as tridactyl hands with five phalanges, eggs in Josefina’s abdomen, and the presence of rare metals like osmium and cadmium chloride. On November 11, the results of multiple medical, forensic, and biological investigations are presented to the Peruvian Congress.
  • 2019: The Universidad Nacional San Luis Gonzaga (UNICA) takes custody of the specimens for research. The Ministry of Culture attempts to confiscate them but fails to prove fraud.
  • 2020: Josefina's eggs are confirmed to be organic material. Studies on the specimens' anatomy and genetics continue.
  • 2021-2022: Further research reveals more details about the metallic implants and genetics of the specimens. The "Miles Paper" is published, suggesting the tridactyls may be a non-terrestrial species.
  • 2023: Two small specimens are presented at the Mexican Congress, generating international attention. Experts support their authenticity, but the Peruvian Ministry of Culture remains skeptical.
  • 2024: A key year for research. A new specimen, Montserrat, a pregnant tridactyl, is discovered. A male specimen, a child, and a teenage tridactyl are also found. Dr. Edgar Hernández Huaripaucar publishes two peer-reviewed articles highlighting the morpho-anatomical biometric and craniometric characterization of a tridactyl specimen. Shortly afterward, he dies in an accident. In November, the Peruvian Congress organizes a public hearing where forensic experts and biologists confirm that the specimens have not been tampered with.
  • 2025: The Ministry of Culture meets with researchers to discuss the findings. Collaboration is agreed upon to advance research and improve heritage management.

Despite skepticism, many scientists have affirmed the authenticity of these specimens, citing the intricate anatomical details and the absence of tampering. The Universidad Nacional San Luis Gonzaga in Peru has taken a leading role in preserving and studying these remains, while international collaborations continue to uncover new insights into these enigmatic beings.

Jois Mantilla explains where the new bodies from 2024 are coming from.

Santiago

Santiago is estimated to be 5 years old, as evident by his preserved baby teeth an endearing and unique feature. Preserved using the same techniques as Maria, Santiago offers us another glimpse into this mysterious civilization's practices.

Unique Fingerprints and Toeprints of the Tridactyl Beings

Unlike humans or any known species, the tridactyl beings' fingerprints and toeprints are composed of perfectly straight lines, a pattern not observed in nature.

Forensic experts have noted the precision and uniformity of these prints, suggesting possibly an unknown species.

This discovery challenges existing paradigms in biology and raises the possibility of their non-human origin, adding a compelling layer to the ongoing investigation.

THE DEFINITIVE EVIDENCE KNOWN AS MONTSERRAT:
A PREGNANT TRIDACTYL.

Montserrat

Montserrat is an approx. 15 to 25-year-old pregnant tridactyl.

About Maria

Maria is one of the most significant tridactyl specimens discovered. Her unique anatomical features, including an elongated skull and tridactyl limbs, have been extensively studied in the following research papers:

Maria's preservation and unique features provide invaluable insights into the anatomy and biology of tridactyl beings.

Dr. Edgar Hernandez

In Memory of Dr. Edgar Hernandez

We honor the legacy of Dr. Edgar Hernandez, who sadly passed away at the end of 2024. As the head author and leader of this research effort, Dr. Hernandez was instrumental in advancing our understanding of tridactyl specimens like Maria. His dedication and passion for science will always be remembered.
