Red flags for this discovery include:

- Maussan being involved
- The obvious plaster appearance of the mummy
- The reveal by Special Report “Unearthing Nazca” by Gaia with no sign of reputable scientific expertise
- A closed team of researchers with alternative views that go against the scientific mainstream
- No scientific results confirmed or retested because it has not been made available to anyone else
- No documentation of location, context, or discovery
- Promotion of it being a fantastic discovery that will “change everything”
- Not published in a scientific publication
