AFM images of red blood cells (RBCs). (a,b) Single RBCs from recent human tissue. (c) An assembly of RBCs. (d,e) Single corpuscles found in Iceman sample A and sample B are shown. An assembly of several randomly distributed corpuscles, similar to those found within the recent sample (c), are displayed in image (f). The imaged corpuscles (d–f) feature the characteristic discoid and concave surface of RBCs. Credit: Journal of the Royal Society Interface, DOI: 10.1098/rsif.2012.0174

What is the significance of this discovery of red blood cells?

Perhaps we should clone him to find out who shot him

Scientists believe the Iceman was approximately 46 years old when he died
Why 46? If you're estimating the age of a guy who lived 5300 years ago, why not 45 years old?
Is the 46th year significant in some way?
