An Inca child mummy has been returned to the Colla community in Argentina after 119 years at a Buenos Aires museum.

Known as the "Llullaillaco Maiden," the mummy was discovered in 1905 on Llullaillaco volcano.

Researchers believe the child, aged 5-7, was sacrificed in the "capacocha" ritual.

The mummy arrived in El Moreno on May 28, where the Colla people held a reception ceremony.

University representatives apologized for the long delay.
