Scientific analysis
The body has been extensively examined, measured, x-rayed, and dated. Tissues and gut contents were examined microscopically, as was the pollen found on his gear. At the time of his death, Otzi was a 30-to-45-year old man, approximately 160 cm (5'3") tall.
Analysis of pollen and dust grains and the isotopic composition of his teeth's enamel indicate that he spent his childhood near the present village of Feldthurns, north of Bolzano, but later went to live in valleys about 50 km further north.
He had 57 tattoos, some of which were located on or near acupuncture points that coincide with the modern points that would be used to treat symptoms of diseases that Otzi seems to have suffered from, such as digestive parasites and osteoarthrosis. Some scientists believe that these tattoos indicate an early type of acupuncture.
His clothes, including a woven grass cloak and leather vest and shoes, were quite sophisticated.
The shoes were waterproof and wide, seemingly designed for walking across the snow; they were constructed using bearskin for the soles, deer hide for top panels, and a netting made of tree bark. Soft grass went around the foot and in the shoe and functioned like warm socks. The shoes have since been reproduced by experts and found to constitute such excellent footwear that there are plans for commercial production.
Other items found with the Iceman were a copper axe with a yew handle, a flint knife with an ash handle, a quiver full of arrows with viburnum and dogwood shafts and flint heads, and an unfinished yew longbow that was taller than he was.
Among Otzi's possessions were two species of polypore mushrooms. One of these (the birch fungus) is known to have antibacterial properties, and was likely used for medical purposes. The other was a type of tinder fungus, included with part of what appeared to be a complex firestarting kit. The kit featured pieces of over a dozen different plants, in addition to flint and pyrite for creating sparks.
LOCALIZACIÓN GEOGRÁFICA: Situado en las orillas del río Çasamba, en la llanura de Konya, en la Anatolía central. Se encuentra a unos 60 km de Konya, esta abierto al público todo el año aunque es mejor visitarlo a partir de Julio.
El yacimiento neolítico de Çatal hüyük fue descubierto en los últimos años de la década de los 50 del siglo pasado, y excavado por James Mellaart entre 1961 y 1965. El lugar fue famoso rápidamente debido a su gran extensión y a la densa ocupación del asentamiento, como las pinturas espectaculares de los muros y las piezas encontradas en el interior se sus viviendas.
Los primeros trabajos pusieron del manifiesto que sus descubridores se encontraban ante un asentamiento excepcional, se hallaron frente a una serie de estructuras decoradas con frescos y elementos plásticos trabajados en arcilla y modelados formando altorrelieves.
En sus estructuras se encontraron numerosos objetos cotidianos, como cuchillos realizados en piedra, estatuillas femeninas, una de ellas sedente sobre un trono de animales que se identificó como una diosa-madre. Se trabajaron los objetos en materiales tales como la obsidiana, el sílex, arcilla, y hueso.
