Otzi The Iceman is the oldest known human mummy discovered in Europe. Found in the Ötztal Alps in September 1991. He lived sometime between 3400 and 3100 BCE.

His body was preserved because he was frozen in ice for approximately 5,300 years, giving researchers a privileged source to see what life was like in the Bronze Age. According to scholars, this is what he probably looked like.
