Iceman dined on venison, cereals

THE last meal of a prehistoric hunter-warrior frozen in ice for 5,000 years was revealed by scientists yesterday.

DNA extracted from the body of the Tyrolean Iceman, also known as Otzi, showed that he dined on venison before being killed by an arrow.

Otzi’s naturally mummified body was discovered entombed in ice in the Italian Alps in 1991.
