## Bio

He died by hanging sometime between 405 and 384 BC, during the Pre-Roman Iron Age in Scandinavia. His body went into a peat bog on Denmark's Jutland peninsula, where the chemistry preserved skin, features, and expression across twenty-four centuries. When farmers cutting peat near Silkeborg unearthed him in 1950, the face was so lifelike authorities assumed murder. Whether he was sacrificed or executed remains unknown. Twelve years earlier the same bog had given up another body, Elling Woman, but Tollund Man's preservation made him the rarer case - a person you can still meet.
