“In a statement Tuesday, the academy said the findings reopened the debate over Oetzi’s cause of death, particularly since they took into account the rather unnatural way in which his body was found: face down, with his left arm across his chest. The researchers believe the Iceman fell over backward, but was then turned over onto his stomach by his aggressor who then pulled out the arrow shaft while leaving the arrowhead imbedded in Oetzi’s shoulder.”
Its all just speculation masquarading as science. No one could have fallen with his arm like that... Utter BS.
>That was my take as well. The body been out there for 5,000 years being shifted around by ice, snow, wind and who knows what else. He was probably located quite a distance from where is actually fell.
