Otzi, the Neolithic Iceman

• Iceman, an ancient mummified human body. It was
  found by a German tourist  in the Ötztal Alps, on
  the Italian-Austrian border, on September 19,
  1991. Dated 3300 B.C., the body is that of a man
  aged 25 to 35 who had been about (5 feet 2
  inches) tall and had weighed (110 pounds).
  Initially it was thought that he fell victim to
  exposure or exhaustion while crossing the Alps
  and died of freezing however, X-ray examination
  in 2001 showed that an arrowhead was lodged in
  the Icemans left shoulder, suggesting that he
  had likely bled to death after being shot.. His
  nickname, Ötzi, stems from the Ötztal Alps, where
  he was found.
