1. Explain why the iceman was so well preserved? ( source one) It is said that a frozen body will stay preserved over hundreds, even thousand of years. During the first stage of investigations Austrian archaeologist Konrad Spindler researched the layout which had proved that the iceman’s body position and placement of weapons were preserved in the same position from when the Iceman had died, it had also been proved that the body was initially covered in a thin layer of snow which had helped complete
Robert Frost is often known as one of the greatest American poets of all time. Although he is sometimes remembered as hateful and mean spirited, his life was filled with highs and lows. These differentiating periods are represented throughout his poetry. Frost once said that “A poem begins in delight, and ends in wisdom.” As can be seen, this quote not only reflected his poetry, but his life. Though many years of his life were troubled by misfortune, Frost always seemed to persevere. Robert Frost
The Iceman Cometh depicts a group of rock-bottom individuals who spend their days and nights at Harry Hope’s Saloon. They are in and out of drunken stupor and all they have left is their illusionary pasts and glorified pipe dreams for their future. The character Hickey is an important figure to this small community and they look forward to his annual visits, but this time he is very different and they are upset by his claims to renounce their pipe dreams in order to find peace. Eventually, Hickey
Ozti the iceman is one of the most unique and astonishing finds of human remains there has been. Frozen in ice, his story will cease to amaze you. On the 19th September, 1991, Two German holiday makers Erika and Helmut Simon would not have expected to have found a body portruding out of the ice while walking on the east ridge of the Fineilspitze in the Ötztal Alps on the Austrian–Italian border. This wasn’t the biggest shock, it was after removing the body from the ice with jackhammers and ice-picks

This report will cover where he lived, his lifestyle, how he died and methods of investigation. The purpose of this report is to give you an understanding of what life was like for Otzi the Iceman and how scientist used methods of investigation.

The Iceman constitutes the first prehistoric human ever found with his everyday clothing and equipment, and presumably going about his normal business; other similarly intact bodies from prehistory have been either carefully buried or sacrificed. He brings us literally face to face with the remote past (Paul Bahn, 1996). When Otzi died up on the mountain 5,300 years ago, his final resting place was a trench that ironically saved him. With his body face down over a bolder, large rocks lined the small
The article I read is Who Killed the Iceman? Clues Emerge in a Very Cold Case published by The New York Times on March 26th, 2017. This article is about how Detective Inspector Alexander Horn of the Munich Police was called by the head of a small Italian museum in Bolzano, Italy. Angelika Fleckinger is the director of the South Tyrol Museum of Archeology and wanted help solving a cold case. The case was about an unknown victim, nicknamed Ötzi, who has been in cold storage for a quarter-century.
The Iceman Murder Mystery The story is about a man’s body that was found high in the mountains of the Italian Alps. At first the body was thought to be of someone who got lost climbing in the mountains, which happens on occasion. It was not long into the recovery of the body that it became clear that, this was a very old body from a long time ago. What had made it apparent that this was a very old body were the items that were found along with the body. The items were arrows that had flint arrow
organs were cryopreserved in time, allowing archeological researchers a phenomenal insight into human life in the Copper Age. The frozen corpse also gave modern science the opportunity to forensically investigate and positively determine how Otzi the Iceman was killed. The story began on a sunny September day, when two hikers were traversing a mountain pass at the 3210-meter (10,530 foot) level and saw a brown, leathery shape protruding from the ice amidst running melt-water. Examining closely, they
The Most Famous and Well Respected Way of Making Money It's amazing how the life of a contract killer runs, and how one person can do so much to affect the lives of others and have no remorse.

In William Golding’s Lord of the Flies, the beast gives the children a sense of fear throughout the story. It also shows that it is one of the children's top priorities, as they hunt for it and try to protect themselves from it. The children use the beast to work together, but as the novel progresses the group goes through a separation. The beast is an important role in the novel, having many forms of concepts about it. In the novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding, the concept of the beast as
Whether as a child or as a grown adult, we’ve all been afraid of something. A huge focal point in the book Lord of the Flies is what the beast is, a unexplainable monster conjured up by the fear of a group of marooned British boys on an island in the Pacific Ocean. The beast is an amalgam of subjects throughout Lord of the Flies, symbolizing fear, then war, and towards the end of the book, the savage nature of the human heart. The beast is first introduced to the boys when the boy with mulberry
Beauty and the Beast is a classic folk tale known by every girl and aspiring Disney Princess. However, the Disney classic is just one version of the famous tale. Italo Calvino wrote “Bellinda e il Mostro”, which is the Italian version of Beauty and the Beast, in the year 1956. The classic Disney Princess, Belle, made her first appearance in 1991. While the two tales contain several similarities, they also contain many small details that turn them into two very different stories. Italo Calvino’s

This paper will explore the three elements of innate evil within William Golding's, Lord of the Flies, the change from civilization to savagery, the beast, and the battle on the island. Golding represents evil through his character's, their actions, and symbolism. The island becomes the biggest representation of evil because it's where the entire novel takes place. The change from civilization to savagery is another representation of how easily people can change from good to evil under unusual circumstances
When I was young I used to adore watching the television series Xena: Warrior Princess with my grandfather. While I’m sure my childish crush on a young Lucy Lawless may have had something to do with it, I was also enamored with world the show presented; an ancient world of gods, warlords, and kings, and the story of a princess forged in battle who changed that world. Now I’m sure my paraphrase of cheesy 90s narration is not quite accurate, after all Xena first aired in 1995, and that seems like a
During those ages when we are just a little kid, we dreamt to be a superhero that could protect the world from being attacked or destroyed by enemies. We always worship to the superheroes that we liked when we watch the superheroes movies. Not only that, we also even act as them by using a scarf, tie on our necks and crazy around with our friends. Recently, I adored with two kinds of superhero movies after I watched them. Those movies are The Kick-Ass 2 and The X-Men 2 which mainly attract teenager’s
The Axeman of New Orleans terrorized a city and got away with it. In the early nineteen hundreds, a serial killer took the lives of multiple New Orleanians. Many thought that the attacks might be the results of Italian gangsters in New Orleans,these gangsters did not usually attack women or children; therefore, it is not probable that the “Axeman” was a part of the mafia. Even though New Orleans had heavy mob activity there is no evidence that the Axeman was associated with this group. The Axeman
Richard Kuklinski, also known as “The Iceman”, was a killer for hire. He murdered somewhere between 100 and 200 people by many different weapons (Martin, 2006). The first time Kuklinski murdered someone was when he was fourteen years old, due to his rough family life (Source 2). He craved murder and had an appetite for violence. Little did anyone know, Richard Kuklinski would become a highly dangerous hitman based upon his genetics and environment. Kuklinski’s lust for violence and blood
