Answers will vary but may include:
In September 1991, the well-preserved, freeze-dried body of a man was discovered. At
the time, scientists believed he had lived 4,000 years ago. His body and the everyday gear he had
with him provided important information about his biology and his society. An autopsy in 2010
revealed that the Iceman actually lived 5,000 years ago. Scientists also learned his hair and eye
color, that he was murdered, and that he had eaten a full meal before he was killed.
