This girl was part of an Inca sacrifice ritual. Her, 15 years old, along with two other younger children were part of a ritual consisting in drinking an alcoholic beverage and taking some drugs (coca leaves, as scientists reported) and then taken to an underground grave, along with some other object that were meant to help the kids travel to the other side. The substances were meant to help them not feel the freezing cold (which lead them to their death). The Incas believed that they would never die, but just pass to the other side and watch for their tribe along with their ancestors.
