5,300 years after his death in the Swiss Alps, the preserved remains of Otzi continue to reveal new secrets of man's early history.
Wie mag das Leben des „Ötzi“ ausgesehen haben, bevor ihm vor 5.300 Jahren ein Pfeil in den Rücken traf? Jürgen Vogel versucht es im Film „Der Mann aus dem Eis“ nachzuspielen. Das Ergebnis verblüfft.
Otzi's mummified remains were found high in the Otztal Alps in southern Austria in 1991. Three models have now been made from the scans of the body, and they will tour North America next year.

The ownership and custodianship of Ötzi varies, for many reasons. Photo courtesy here. When Ötzi was found, the real political question between Italy and Austria was, "In which country was Ötzi found?" This simple, yet consequential question was successfully answered when authorities confirmed Ötzi was actually found on the Italian side, in an attempt to resolve the bitter dispute over the ownership of the Iceman's historically crucial preserved body. However, instead of rectifying all confusions, this answer led to more questionings over the custodianship of Ötzi. Questions such as "Was Ötzi a pre-Italian man travelling to what is now Austria, or was he a pre-Austrian man travelling to Italy?" arose, and eventually other scientific research and investigation confirmed Ötzi to be an Italian man who was born in an Italian village of Feldthurns (also known as Velturno) which is north of present day Bolzano. Though these questions had been disputed over then answered and resolved, other questions of the ethical issues involving the dead body of a human still remain. This video states the DNA based claims by scientists and how Ötzi is actually not related to people from the Alps, where he was originally found, outbreaking more arguments and revision of how we perceive history on human migration, Photo courtesy here. Ötzi is currently on display in a built facility entrusted to the supervision of the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in Bolzano. He has special atmospheric conditions available to him to stop the decaying or damaging of his body; with the controlled temperature, humidity and a nitrogen rich atmosphere, and he can be seen through a window by the museum visitors. Some may argue that it is wrong to display or investigate human remains, especially of ancient bodies. In the scientific world, such examinations are crucial for the advancement of science and the broadening of our knowledge on human civilisation and history, but it is usually the religious or ethical beliefs of some people which cause them to reject the displaying of human remains. These people reason that the remains of the ancient bodies were once alive and breathing like any other human on earth, and they deserve the same amount of respect after death and should be ritually buried. Nonetheless, various secular-minded people would insist that from the time period in which these bodies belong to, they did not practice Christianity, and were most likely pagan, so religious ethical issues should be ruled out because at the time of their death, religious morals (of the modern day) would not have applied. All the same, this justification leads to the allowed investigation and experiments of human remains. Moreover, most people tend to think that as long as the body of the dead isn't being mistreated or disrespected, it is alright to conduct scientific research. With these reasonings, many still argue over this sensitive topic, upholding their personal beliefs on the dead from the past.

In all of the research I have been doing I have found and in the good pics or the artifacts the stitching varies widely from sinews to Gut to plant fibers, grasses and small varied sourced thongs. Also the methods used. On the pack sack I did a load of experimentation with the varied style and stitching materials’ I started trying trad methods also to refresh the muscle memory in the sessions and went to a quicker method using a star punch and sail needle… that now has broke lol The coat, when I get there will be clean as I can as far as stitching since I will want to use the thing later, but the Pack Sack I wanted to sew pull apart and fix a few times just to dive into that a little. it shows in the pack so far though I have lots of work ahead. I also wanted to show varied stitch and materials in the pack… The leggings will be a little more of a patch stitch showcase as well The Trad way I was doing was poke a hole ream that out with a awl and send the “Thread “ through and synch er down For holes at a time,actually 8 with four stitches…Rolling stitch as well as some others… Four… The llll bars has been a way to mark possessions since I was a kid I got it from the WHITNEY point blankets my… Yes… Grandpa had lol it is easy to sctatch or carve, so llll bars is a mark ive used for quite awhile… four came up years later with Ishi and many other people and I’ll be damned if llll bars weren’t found on Otzi tattoos …are ya tracking on the flow here? lol The Net took about 6 hours I guess maybe more. I would leave it in the yard where I worked on it to mainly test the weathering of the sisal salvaged from work, it passed with flying colors Since I first found out about netting being discovered, I have had my theory’s ,Maybe since the people that are studying the artifacts and remains have not gone through a phase of “101 ways to kill a man with a jungle hammock” lol Old joke, the Book as I pull it off the shelf is really called “24 ways to use a jungle hammock in the field” The 101 ways was the exaggerated version we came up with in the field lol… a scrape of simple net is a one of the most utilitarian things you can posses lol Im not really a hammock guy but that book opened a can o worms that to this day I cannot close ENTER Dersu the Trapper. In that book and the Kurasawa film one of the most impressive things was the use of that net that held his pack together. I used a simple method to make the net so no measurement or shuttle was used just two common knots fingers and feel,I did get a little lost since I would walk away and come back a lot but this net will be the one to go. More on the planned use of this net for the trip latter The fact no true pack sack was found but little bits of netting were that sent me in the direction Im going with this Thanks again and take care MORE SOON... Rough deer hide pack sack/ground cloth/ kilt folded with Frame(Grapevine made the cut) Any stitching on clothing items will be tighter and cleaner this style from what I have gathered at least from the Belt and shoe remains will do for some gear components I used multiple lace material and methods...again from what I have gathered. $6 deer scrap bag gut bundle for clothing items when I get there material wise stained with coffee and blackwalnut...and bits I rolled the packsack for a idea of what a legging will look like as far as the patch work Das Netz outer compression for pack sack/insulation compression/hasty net vest...Multi purpose... since I posted this harness of Barkthese have been left in the yard on the floorboards of my rig left in the rain and Tx heat and humidity They have remained flexable and strong so they are Go!

Otzi and the items he had with him were brought to authorities. Upon investigation, they discovered that he was the oldest natural mummy we’ve found.
Learning from the past is important and I sometimes think about this from a design perspective. Can we learn from old traditional designs, or techniques and apply them to modern design? Is all prim…

Ötzi is the star of glacial archaeology. Incredibly, the ice mummy and his artefacts were only preserved by a string of lucky coincidences. Really?
