Get to know the story of tzi the Iceman, a 5, 300-year-old glacier mummy who researchers discovered had been murdered. In September 1991, two hikers discovered a corpse emerging from the ice. Researchers soon realized they were looking at the mummified body of a man who d lived about 5, 300 years ago, and theorized he got caught in bad weather and froze. However, a shocking discovery revealed his true cause of death and upended his story. So, how did he die? Albert Zink uncovers the truth about zti the Iceman. mydarkestlovely: The way our technology can solve the cause of death and his activities hours before. Wow. I'm reminded of kdrama Partners for Justice. For forensics, death doesn't silence someone. A corpse does tell a story.

Fun story to this one: When my family and me visited Oetzi in Bozen in the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology, we took our dog with us. The area in which Oetzi is preserved is behind some sort of glass wall and is actually prohibited for dogs/animals, but the workers were so kind to make an exception for us because our dog was bad on foot bc of an injury during that time and we carried her to the big window and she was happily smiling at Oetzi. So I can rightfully say our dog is probably the only dog that ever saw Oetzi: )

You can visit the museum that hosts him, in the wonderful Bozen, an Italian city in the German-speaking province of Italy. They have a room with a controlled atmosphere where he lies, and that is visible through a glass window.
Personally, it was amazing to see this ancestor of ours. He lived a tough life, but at least it wasn't for nothing. He told us so much about the lives he and his fellows lived.

I think it's kind of interesting how the body doesn't only tell you how he died, but also how the environment was like back then. I know it's not anything special, but that sort of thing brings me a weird sense of nostalgia like what life was like back then and how the landscape used to look like. I just have a fondness for cool peaks and valleys.

who knows it was a murder? it very well could have been just a warranted killing
anyway interesting stuff, during that time the 2nd oldest cradle of civilization was forming in india

reply

Just the fact that his axe was from Tuscany indicates there was a sophisticated international trading system. It s really interesting what you can piece together
reply

Dead body isn't dead.
It tells us one important thing how a person got killed.
So next time when you call corpses as dead body think about it

Really cool seeing the life of someone, who lived before the 7 wonders of the world and during a time where metal smelting was a fairly new concept

I hope they catch the killer soon! What is our justice system even doing, letting a murderer wander around freely for 5300 years?
