Now, through an autopsy like none other, scientists will attempt to unravel more mysteries from this ancient mummy, revealing not only the details of Otzi's passing, but an entire way of life. How did people live during Otzi's time, the Copper Age? What did they eat? What diseases did they cope with? The answers abound miraculously in this one man's mummified remains.
