Atacama 'Alien' Mystery Solved

Genetic researchers have unraveled the mystery of a bizarre mummified skeleton once suspected of possibly being an alien.

The six-inch-long oddity was discovered back in 2003 in Chile's Atacama  desert and, upon being revealed to UFO researchers, was heralded by some  as a potential breakthrough in the search for ET confirmation.

Dubbed the 'Atacama alien' or 'Ata' for short, the skeleton's conical  head and abnormally large eye sockets bore an uncanny resemblance to the  iconic depiction of a grey ET.

This fantastic conclusion was, unfortunately, squashed five years ago  when DNA tests on the 'alien' revealed that it was, in fact, a human  being.

However, researchers were still stumped by what may have caused Ata's  unique appearance, but a newly-published paper appears to have solved  the mystery.
