When you think of mummies, chances are you don't think of Wyoming. But, that is only because you've never heard of Perdo.

In 1932 prospectors Cecil Mayne and Frank Carr were attempting to find gold in Wyoming's San Pedro Mountains.

The two men used explosives to open a sealed cave and instead of finding gold, found a room with a small mummy inside. The mummy appeared to be a small old man with crossed arms and legs. It was only 16.5 centimeters tall.
