First-ever replica of Otzi the Iceman, on display in Cold Spring Harbor
Ever met a 5000 yr-old face-to-face? You no longer have to fly all the way to South Tyrol, Italy to see Ötzi the Iceman - he's here on LI!
The DNA Learning Center of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory worked with the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in Bolzano, Italy to make a 3D replica of the Ötzi mummy. This is the only authorized replica of Ötzi outside of the South Tyrol Museum.
On upcoming Saturdays, we are excited to offer guided tours of the Ötzi the Iceman exhibition led by DNALC educators. Hear Ötzi’s story and find out what we have learned about Neolithic times from studying his body, clothing, and equipment. Then, move into one of our laboratories to further explore details of this 5,300-year-old murder mystery!
Ötzi can be found at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, located at 334 Main St.
