☆ Ötzi the Iceman has the world’s oldest tattoos. How were they made?
  + stars: | 2024-04-09 | by ( Katie Hunt | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +9 min
CNN —Found high in the Tyrolean Alps in 1991, Ötzi the Iceman had dark skin and eyes and was likely bald. How and why Ötzi, perhaps the world’s most studied corpse, got the body art has long been a source of fascination. Ötzi's tattoos, captured with image-processing software, might have been part of an ancient healing technique, according to research. The design, created during a 2022 study of ancient tattooing tools and techniques, is not one of Ötzi's tattoos. Samadelli urged the team to continue their study of Ötzi’s tattoos and how they were made.

CNN —Ötzi the Iceman, whose frozen remains were found in a gully high in the Tyrolean Alps by hikers in 1991, is perhaps the world’s most closely studied corpse. Each year, thousands visit his mummy contained in a special cold cell at the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in Bolzano, Italy.
