yes i would say he was on a journey somewhere...but i doubt he was planning to cross the alps...my theory is;;; he was alone or in company, on some trek...came upon unfriendly locals ,(as you sometimes do,like in the movie DELIVERENCE..) & after suffering a battle wound ...fled to the high country to escape his pursuers.
no i'm not saying he was raped by hillbillies lol,,, just that the possibilities on what really happened, are endless.
@masheenman oh no there is a problem with that theory, the people living in northern Italy at this time did not have alcohol yet, and it is a proven scientific fact that no one in their right mind would eat a kebab sober
If otzi survived this long by being protected from glacial action by being buried among the rocks, how do we know he wasn't among other people whose remains were swept away by glacial action outside the protection of the rocks?? I don't think he was the only victim of murder or slaughter. People just didn't travel alone for obvious reasons, especially when survival of the fittest was law. Maybe women were more valuable that copper and thats why he and others were killed and valuables were found
@monsterfifty7 Interesting theory. However to me the tools he's carrying instantly suggest a solo scout. Nothing to say he wouldn't have the same tools while in a group though. Just seems prepared and carrying everything needed on 1 person.
@trip247365-the very first major pyramid in Egypt is the Pyramid of Djoser in Saqqara, which was built 4600 years ago (~700 years after Ozti). Sumer was just beginning to be settled (by that I mean through agriculture) around 7000 y/o. Ozti was from a Neolithic culture which also practiced agriculture and likely just as long as anything from Mesopotamia.
@trip247365,....So,"I'm pretty sure",better shut off M&M and try some history.For the Egyptians to become so advanced,given just allot of sand,and time,how long did it take them? Pre-Pyramid time to get to that point ?
@trip247365 Woooaahh this is waayyy before anything in North Africa and just before civilization arose in Asia with the Sumerians, the city of Ur was just being started when Otzi was around.
just saw otzi at the museum in bolzamo italy, while on holidays in the dolomites ...fascinating story, incredible findings, esp. with all the conclusions they've now made with his dna... brown eyes, 45 years when died, etc...2 dutch researchers have now recreated him (as of jan 2011)...using exact molds and casts from his xrays/scans, etc...his upper body was much more dev'd than his lower body...
i was really intrigued with the entire museum exhibit !!!
Well, Otzi died right on top of a Tectonic Plate. I don't know if the video metions it, but, he had broken ribs. If Otzi had broken them before he died, they'd have healed, but, they weren't healed were they? If he was buried under the ice for 5300 YEARS, then he would have shifted with the plates. That may be why his arm is in such a peculiar position. The broken ribs could be from the 5300 years layers of ice.
HELLO EVERYBODY ! Please CHECKOUT MY CHANNEL IT'S GOT THE BEST MAFIA DOCKYS ON THE NET..WITH SOME OF THE RARIEST MAFIA DOCKYS AND TV SERIES ABOUT AL CAPONE AND THE UNTOUCHABLES ..STARRIN WILLIAM FORSYTHE AS AL CAPONE.PLEASE RATE AND LEAVE YOU'RE COMMENTS ..THANKS AND ENJOY!:)
They were far inferior to modern humans. In fact the net book he was found frozen to only had 1 gig of RAM. And the weed he had in his pipe was bunk Mexican. I know for certain they didn't have a well developed culture because his iPod was full of Lady Gaga and Justin Beiber. The Neanderthals listened to Pink Floyd and led Zeppelin. Hence they had bigger brains.
@canadianshit212 Probably the latter. IIRC, the Celts (well, their ancestors) were just moving into Europe at that time and were mostly confined to the east of the continent, even though they were slowly moving westwards.
And did people talk to each other at this time, did they have a language? Or did they only show what they wanted with they're hands or "body language"?
@laksemann .Of course. It's only 5000 years ago not 5 million! This man was identical in every way to you and I. The early proto Italic, proto celtic etc languages were probably already developing in Europe. There was an older language before that; maybe like Basque.
@laksemann tribel people in the most remote places of Afica and south America have languages. the Austrain natives have a language before they first contacted by white people.
language is one of the few natural human constracks
@laksemann Probably much smarter than the average person today as they had much more to learn in much more unforgiving circumstances. Making a mistake on a hunt or with saving food could lead easily to death. They were what we call behaviourally modern. These days people tend to know what they do for a living and rely on others to do the other bits and pieces. I mean, could you find food, light fires, make tools and shelters? Do you know how to identify poisons? etc.. They weren't dumb.
