sep 19, 1991 - Ötzi discovery
Description:
Ötzi's sudden death in the ice has preserved him virtually unchanged for thousands of years, giving us a snapshot of the routine life of a Copper Age man. Until Ötzi's discovery, we had no exact knowledge about technological skills of late Neolithic people. Organic materials had rarely been preserved. (http://www.iceman.it)Added to timeline:
