description: "Lindow Man, also known as Lindow II and as Pete Marsh, is the preserved bog body of a man discovered in a peat bog at Lindow Moss near Wilmslow in Cheshire, North West England. The remains were found on 1 August 1984 by commercial peat cutters. Lindow Man is not the only bog body to have been found in the moss; Lindow Woman was discovered the year before, and other body parts have also been recovered. The find was described as \"one of the most significant archaeological discoveries of the 1980s\" and caused a media sensation. It helped invigorate the study of British bog bodies, which had previously been neglected."
tagline: "Iron Age bog body found in England who was beaten with a club and had his throat cut before death"
