So, a 90-year-old man was hiking up a frozen mountain?
No, I don’t think so.

An interesting points that I rarely heard mentioned about Otzi.
5,300 years ago was about the time of Menes of Egypt, who united the Upper and Lower Kingdoms.
But while the Egyptians were building a civilization, Otzi was using copper tools - an innovation the “stone age” Egyptians wouldn't adopt until after the Hyksos invasion.
