Sure would be nice if they'd stop defiling this poor man and let him rest in peace.

Yes, it would. I don't think it's going to happen though.

I was in Bolzano (Bozen to the Austrians) in July and saw the iceman exhibit. Very impressive. His clothes and implements, especially the copper axe, are fascinating. I agree that it would be better if his corpse were not on display; he deserves to rest in peace (it doesn't really look like a mummy, it looks like a partially decomposed corpse, which it is).

That said, the find and its study are fascinating. Anyone interested in details go to www.iceman.it. After selecting English scroll to the right for pictures and descriptions of all the clothes and equipment.
