Suddenly there was a harsh rattling, followed immediately by rapid thudding and jangling noises. "What the devil's that!" He swung his flashlight around. Mike let out a startled yelp. Propped in a sitting position against the fumerole wall was a dust-covered, partially clad figure in ancient armor. Its yellowed skin was intact, its mouth open, its midsection bared. "Good Lord!" gasped Gannon. "A conquistador made into a human drum!" As soon as they recovered from their shock they examined the gruesome discovery more closely. "It's Incan, all right," Ganon told them. "They were experts at making mummies. They literally tanned the hides of their enemies and turned them into drums. This unfortunate fellow was probably one of Pizarro's men." "What made the sound?" asked André? "Something set it off when you tripped"
