Hi guys, it's me, Joe B here's my stuff 1st post lol :
ReplyDelete1.Studies of the Iceman's innards revealed a surprising variety of mosses, from different climate regimes suggesting that Otzi was a local man and traveled the Alpine region widely.
2.Otzi had approximately 57 carbon tattoos consisting of simple dots and lines on his lower spine, behind his left knee, and on his right ankle. Using X-ray's, it was determined that Otzi may have had arthritis in these joints. It has been speculated that they may have been related to acupuncture.
3.Initially it had been believed that Otzi died from exposure to a winter storm. Later it was speculated that he may have been a victim of a ritual sacrifice, perhaps for being a chieftain.
CLOTHING
ReplyDeleteotzi was fully clothed when he died. But his clothes was fell a part and special the ones that are important. When he was found his back of cloth were badly ripped. But he lying face so most were okay. When he was found he was only wearing right shoe. He was wearing two shoes, a kind of goatskin coat, a bear fur cap ties with two leather straps, two goatskin leggings, a goatskin loincloth, a woven grass mat.

ReplyDeleteInitially it had been believed that Ötzi died from exposure during a winter storm. Later it was speculated that Ötzi may have been a victim of a ritual sacrifice, perhaps for being a chieftain.
Ötzi apparently had whipworm (Trichuris trichiura), an intestinal parasite. During CT scans, it was observed that three or four of his right ribs had been squashed when he had been lying face down after death, or where the ice had crushed his body.
When the Iceman's mitochondrial DNA was analyzed by Franco Rollo and his colleagues,[25] it was discovered that he had genetic markers associated with reduced fertility. It has been speculated that this may have affected his social acceptance.
Otzi The Iceman:
ReplyDelete1.If Ötzi were alive today, he would be about 5,300 years old! Archaeologists have determined that Ötzi was an adult male between 25 and 40 when he died.
2.Scientists believe that Ötzi was caught in a heavy snowfall, fell asleep, and froze to death.
3.Ötzi the Ice Man was found near Hauslabjoch in the Ötzal Alps in September 1991 by two walkers.

ReplyDelete1)Ötzi the Ice Man was found near Hauslabjoch in the Ötzal Alps in September 1991 by two walkers. The Ice Man died approximately 5200 years ago. At death he was between 40 and 50 years old and suffered from a number of medical conditions. He turned into a mummy accidentally almost immediately by the freezing weather conditions that turned him into the Ice Man. Scientists believe that Ötzi was caught in a heavy snowfall, fell asleep, and froze to death. Scientists have concluded this because there were no signs of predator attacks. They believe that the body must have been covered with snow almost immediately.
2)If Ötzi were alive today, he would be about 5,300 years old! Archaeologists have determined that Ötzi was an adult male between 25 and 40 when he died.
3)The first clues to how old the Ice Man was came from many of the tools and objects found with him. The stone ax and stone knife found with him were similar to other stone tools found elsewhere and which are thousands of years old.
HOW OTZI DIED
ReplyDeleteBy the blood and an arrow stick to his shoulder we can know that his death wasn't so peachful.
Archaeologist think that he died from a battle or may be he had crime.
OTZI'CLOTHING
Otzi was fully chothed when he died.But most of his clothes were gone and the ones that were breaking a part.
When he was found he was only wearing his shoes.The backside of his cloth were badly ripped.But the front were saved.
The clothes that he was wearing was two shoes, a kind of goatskin coat, a bear fur cap ties with two leather straps,
two goatskin leggings, a goatskin loincloth, a woven grass mat.Archaeologist believed the woven grass mat was a cap but
it was too narrow so we couldn't use.So reseachers believed that he worn it on his head for project his head.And the shoe
that he was wearing were right shoe.It was made out of bearskin soles, deerskin insteps, and chamois/cow/calf/linden bark uppers.
That shoe is the oldest shoe we ever found.
OTZI'S LAST MEAL
Otzi didn't died in full stomach.the foods that he ate were very simple.
Bit of bread made of einkorn wheat, one of the few domesticated grains, some plant, an herb or other green, and meat.

ReplyDeleteBiominerals from the diet are deposited in the body at different times - in the teeth, for example, during childhood, and in the bones in adult life.
This allowed researchers in Australia, the United States and Switzerland to deduce where Oetzi lived at various stages of his life.
The team believes his movements were restricted to a few valleys within 60 kilometres south-east of where his body was discovered.
He never moved north of this point and probably grew up in the Eisack valley, in the southern Tyrol.
Several ancient archaeological sites in and around this region have been identified.
The scientists think Feldthurns is the iceman's most likely childhood home: excavations have revealed a standing stone dating back to the Copper Age.
Migration patterns
Later on in life, he moved further north to the mountains of lower Vinschgau, before travelling to the Otz valley where he met his death at the age of 46. Dr Alexander Halliday of the Department of Earth Sciences at RTH Zurich told BBC News Online: "This is the first time that anyone has made a comprehensive study of the migration of a human in the past.
"It looks like he lived much of his life in a different valley from where he was born.
"The impression one gets is that the Alpine valleys in that particular area were fairly well-inhabited."
The research is consistent with the iceman spending his childhood in the southern Alpine valleys before migrating further north in adulthood.
Alternatively, he could have spent his summers up in the mountains and moved down to the valleys in the winter.
This is a pattern of seasonal migration that started in the Middle Neolithic period and is still practiced today.
well this all i got
ReplyDeletefrom honey

Ötzi's fur quiver, where he kept his rosewood arrows, contained 12 blank shafts and two finished arrows, which were broken.

ReplyDeleteWell done everyone else. Only two incomplete homework offenders so far.
Jei and Captain, you have until the period begins on Friday!
I hope reading about Otzi made you think for a little while about how different your life is from his, and how much opportunity you have to learn and gain knowledge in this world.
Mr. Alam
Or simply "Alam" if you're Honey! Though, well done Honey on knowing what it means.
"MIGRATION IS THE BEST" haha. Well done "Anonymous" who took two posts to figure out how to put his "eng" (without a capital E) as the author!
ReplyDeleteAfter this chapter, maybe Diana will agree. Or maybe she won't. And neither of you will be 100% right or wrong.
Let's be able to have class discussions and debates without losing our cool OK? Listening and appreciating someone else's point of view as important a skill as speaking and presenting your own.
i'm not the only one who didn't agree!

Pangea,
ReplyDelete1.The breaking up and formation of super continents appears to be cyclical through Earth's 4.6 billion years history.
2.When Rodinia broke up, it split into three pieces, the super continent of proto-Laurasri and the super continent of proto-Gondwana and the smaller congo craton.
3.Proto-Laurasia and Proto Gondwana were seperated by Proto-tethys ocean.
