The food that was eaten the last time before the death of the shogun called 'Europe's first victim' was revealed.

Recently, the European Academy of Mammal and Iceman Institute (EURAC) published a paper on the analysis of gastric juices of the yin and yang as "Last Supper" that it was confirmed that it had eaten mountain goats, red deer, wheat and toxic ferns.

Otsuki, which has been reported many times in Korea, is also known as 'Iceman'. In September 1991, the entire body of the glacier in Alps was found dead. Italian police were investigating at the time, but the perpetrator became a permanent US case. The reason is that it was found to have died in the Stone Age, 5300 years ago.

Since then, it has attracted great interest from academia, and so far various studies have been carried out. The man, about 45 years old, shouted at a height of 150cm. It was presumed that he had been shed a lot of blood with an arrow near his left shoulder. However, in 2013, EURAC confirmed by microscopic examination of the proteins and blood cells extracted from the brain tissue of the external teeth that the biceps died of bruises on the head just before the death. Whether it is an arrow or bruise, it is the first victim in Europe.


Based on previous research, EURAC confirmed the types of foods that were last eaten. In particular, half of the food in the stomach was identified by a high-altitude method, such as goat, presuming it would be the energy that the Alps could sustain in a harsh environment. I also ate a plant like the fern that shouted, but the researchers also cautiously suggested the possibility of using it as a medicine to kill stomach parasites.

"It is a very impressive study that we have grasped the last meal of the meal," said Dr. Frank Maxinner, a senior author of the paper. "It is a clue to know what kind of diet people have at the time." "We have already informed us a lot about shouting," he added. "It is like a time machine, which informed us at the time of culture, including diet, genetics, disease, microorganisms, as well as clothing and bow." The paper was published in the current issue of Current Biology, an international journal.
