«The Bog Man and the Archaeology of People» is the archaeology study by D. R. Brothwell, published by British Museum Press in paperback (128 pages).
It recounts the 1984 discovery of the perfectly preserved body of the «bog man», an individual from about a thousand years ago, and its study by a multidisciplinary team. The work broadens the view to other preserved human bodies, such as Egyptian and Guanche mummies, frozen Scythian corpses, and remains from ancient China.
The body investigated is Lindow Man, a male from the Iron Age; the text, in English, includes an index and bibliography (pages 124-126).
Suitable for the general public and for readers with academic interest in archaeology.
