1. Who is Otzi, where and when did they find him? Why is he often called the Iceman? Where has he been kept since his body was discovered? What makes this case special for forensic scientists?

He is a caveman mummy who was found well preserved and frozen in a mountain. He is being kept in a museum specifically the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in Bolzano, Italy. This is special for scientists because his body can give clues to what life was like before he was frozen.
