This is Vittrup Man—the name given to the bones of a hunter-gatherer from the Stone Age. For 5,000 years, his skull has been preserved in a Danish bog thanks to the right temperature, plant life, and oxygen levels. His remains, found alongside the weapon that murdered him, provide fascinating insights into two pre-historic periods and cultures. Find out more about what was revealed: https://lnkd.in/eP6fXRSQ
