The dating said that the chamber must have been built around 450 years before Christ. Some of the carved tree trunk was measured for age as well, from the rings around the trunk. The archaeologists spent hours peering down a microscope measuring the rings. Each year the tree will grow a varied amount of rings due to the rainfall and other conditions. They discovered that the tree was cut 15 years before building the coffin. When the Ice Maiden died the coffin was already built for her and the inside of the coffin was made to look like her…
In the story, The Iceman Campeth, there is many basic needs that the campers face. One of them is Food and Water. Everyone knows that it is imperative that you have food and Water everywhere you go.

The climate around the time of Iceman’s death could not have helped his will to survive, scientists believe he was buried inside of the Similaun Glacier’s ice. The death itself caused by a fatal arrow to the back did not kill the man right away, leaving him to suffer a painful death.…
The two types of ice that are encountered during flight are clear and rime. Clear ice is formed when the remaining liquid fragments of the water drop flows over the aircraft surface, constantly freezing as a smooth layer of solid ice. Forming occurs when droplets are bigger, such as in heavy rain or in thunderstorm clouds. Clear ice is solid, hard, heavy, and cohesive. Removing it by deicing equipment is very challenging.…

Why was the Ice Man killed many ask. There are also many hypotheses that try to answer this question but don’t cover all of the evidence. I feel the way he was killed was a person in his clan trying to get a better spot in society. Also a enemy clan could have raided recently causing all of his wounds found on his body. This could possibly explain many mysteries surrounding his death especially the copper ax.…
More evidence that the iceman had not frozen to death became apparent in June 2001 when a group of scientists in Bolzano x-rayed the body and discovered an arrowhead buried in his left shoulder. Later in 2007 research done by scientists from the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology revealed that the arrow head had severed the subclavian artery and it was possible that the iceman had bled to death.…

The various theories put forward to explain the circumstances surrounding the Ice Man’s death are plausible, although inconclusive. The initial theory was devised by K. Spindler, which consisted of the idea that the Ice Man was a shepherd who fled his village post conflict; although this theory is heavily based on assumption. The subsequent theory was that of Tom Loy, who theorised that the Ice Man was a hunter that had been injured after a territorial dispute that he had encountered, and eventually passed as a result; however this theory presents inconclusive framework. The final theory was presented by Eduart Egarter-Vigal and Walter Leitner, who suggest that the Ice Man was professionally executed (idea drawn from significant wounds and scarring) due to a power struggle in his village; this also presents inconclusive evidence and trace of speculation.…
When we do anything, it is influenced by our past and the people around us. This is the same case for scientific concepts and theories as we try to compare and test them against what we have learned before, even if neither of them is factual or heavily supported by most people. For example, when my family and I were visiting an apartment, the landlord kept talking about the benefits of Vitamin C, referencing a novel. Once we left the complex, my father told us that there weren’t as many advantages to Vitamin C as the landlord had told us. Both of the landlord and I depended on certain people to determine what is right and wrong, but are either of us correct? On one hand, my father has enough experience to make him credible, but he didn’t give…
Curling is a sport in which players slide stones on a sheet of ice towards a target area which is segmented into four concentric rings. It is related to bowls, boules and shuffleboard. Two teams, each of four players, take turns sliding heavy, polished granite stones, also called rocks, across the ice curling sheet towards the house, a circular target marked on the ice.[2] Each team has eight stones. The purpose is to accumulate the highest score for a game; points are scored for the stones resting closest to the centre of the house at the conclusion of each end, which is completed when both teams have thrown all of their stones. A game may consist of ten or eight ends.…
