Otzi
the Iceman is the modern nickname of a well-preserved natural mummy
of a man believed to of died about 5300 years ago. He was aged in his
forties when he died and roughly 5”2 inches tall.
Perfect weather
conditions allowed for the mummification of the mans body; sun and
wind dried out his body, rocks formed a trench around him which
prevented water from washing his body away forever. He would be
discovered in the same position he died in, over 5000 years later.
