The 25-centimeter dwarf discovered in Kerman has puzzled archaeologists and attracted smugglers, creating great sensations among public.

전설로만 내려오던 ‘소인족 미라’가 발견되어 고고학자, 과학자들 사이에 큰 화제를 불러 일으키고 있다

최근 이란 커만주 샤다드 (Shahdad city of Kerman province)시 구디즈 유적지(Gudiz)에서 발견되었다.

미라가 발견된 도시(요새) 유적지는 사산왕조 시대 (Sassanid era 226-642 A.D.)에 것으로 불법 굴착중에 완전한 상태로 발견 되었다.

도굴꾼들에 의해 발굴된 소인족 미라의 크기는 25cm. 이 미이라는 3백만 달러의 가격에 독일로 밀반출 되던 중 당국에 적발되어 정체가 드러났는데, 현재 이란 과학자들이 미라에 대한 상세한 연구를 진행 중에 있다.

과학자들은 25cm 크기의 미라의 주인이 사망 당시 16~17세인 것으로 추정하고 있는데, 미라의 상태가 거의 완벽해 조만간 정밀 조사 결과를 발표할 수 있을 것으로 언론은 내다봤다.

미라가 발굴된 이란 커만주에는 ‘소인족’에 관한 전설이 있는데, 실제 소인족과 관련된 역사적 증거물이 발견된 것은 이번이 처음이라고 언론은 전했다.

Sensations rise around 25-centimeter dwarf

LONDON, October 25 (IranMania) - The 25-centimeter dwarf near Shahdad city of Kerman province and the rumors of the existence of an ancient dwarf city in Kerman province has brought a lot of questions to archaeologists and caused great sensations among the public, said CHN.

Kerman?s Police Department and the provincial office of Iran?s Cultural Heritage and Tourism Organization (ICHTO) have asked for the clarification of the situation of the discovered mummified corpse in Shahdad to settle the issue as soon as possible.

Two months ago, illegal excavations in the historical fortress of Gudiz in Kerman province near Shahdad city, which dates back to the Sassanid era, led to the discovery of a 25-centimeter corpse known as the ?mummified dwarf? facing archaeologists with a mystery since then.

Forensic studies have not been able to determine the sexuality and the exact age of the corpse at the time of its death so far.

?Regarding the rumors and the sensitivity of the issue of the existence of an ancient dwarf city in Kerman province, the Cultural Heritage and Tourism Organization of Kerman has asked for more anthropological studies to end the rumors,? says Hossein Rashidzadeh, an official with the Cultural Heritage and Tourism Organization of Kerman.

Regarding the fact that no mummies have been found in Iran from any historical periods, ICHTO archaeologists have denied the corpse being a mummified one. On the other hand, the Organization anthropologists believe that that the corpse may have been mummified under natural processes.

Police Department of Kerman province has arrested two smugglers with regard to this corpse; the smugglers wanted to sell the mummy for about more than 3 million U.S. dollars in Germany.

The corpse which is 20 to 25 centimeters high has remained quiet intact during excavations. It is estimated that the dwarf should have been 16-17 years old at the time of death.
