Who Was Responsible For Otzi The Iceman's Death

546 Words3 Pages

Ötzi The Iceman was found 1991 by two hikers in the Austrian Alps. First police thought it was a lost hiker that died by freezing to death but then multiple tools from the copper age were found near the body and then scientists knew that this man came from the copper age. They Named him Ötzi the Iceman. Ever since he was found, scientist and geologist try to find out the murder case, why Ötzi The Iceman killed? I believe that he was unwillingly sacrificed because, the Bruises on his body indicate that he was in some sort of fight or struggle, but it wasn't a flesh wound which means his murderers weren't trying to kill him, but to disable him so he won't resist toward his sacrifice. Of course there is the fatal shot to the back, but I believe that Ötzi escaped and had enough time to pack some things to survive including the copper axe (which he could have used as a weapon because his bow and arrows were broken or unfinished). Then he escaped into the mountains where he hoped to escape. …show more content…

Maby somebody of the ritualists must have followed him and shot him in the back. Because he killed Ötzcxfdi in the mountains he laid his weapons that Ötzi carried with him out and started some sort of ritual. He pulled out the arrow shaft out of his body, but the arrowhead got stuck in his shoulder shoulder. So to simulate a proper ritual sacrifice not a murder he turned Ötzis body but failed. There is also a stone carving of Ötzi’s murderer and the copper axe that Ötzi carried with him. This is indicates that the killer of Ötzi told what he did what won't lead to murder because as a murderer you want to keep the murders a secret. I found even more information that supports this theory. Like that this time of the copper age had bunch of sacrificial ceremonies and most of the sacrifices weren't there by will and that lots of sacrificial bodies were laid or buried in the mountains for the

  • The Assassination Of Otzi Analysis

    562 Words  | 3 Pages

    One that seems to make sense is that he was assassinated by a clanmate who was jealous of his position. This is likely because of his copper axe, the arrowhead’s type and its location in his back and a large stone inside the cave which depicted the assassination. First, the Iceman’s axe was made of smelted copper which was advanced for his time, and signified that he was a man of power or position. Although a small detail, it would make sense that someone could have desired his status. In Ötzi’s time and culture, when people of authority were killed, their position would go to their killer.

    As an attorney for the side of the prosecution, I believe the jury’s verdict to find Odysseus guilty of first-degree murder was in good taste. The evidence and arguments of the prosecution proved to be irrefutable. Contrastingly, the arguments from the defense were cracked, founded upon technicalities, and did not justify letting a killer walk free. Both sides presented their case, but the strength of both was not equal. In the end, the lack of solid reasoning from the defense and the strong delivery of the prosecution led to the guilty verdict.
