The Iceman, one of our first ancestors, lived a very advanced life for that time period and was murdered because of an occurring war. Suzie Q, an intern at the Louisiana Laboratory, brings to our attention that the 25th anniversary of the Iceman discovery is just around the corner. To remember the day the Iceman was found, three authentic artifacts will be displayed at the Museum of Ancestral History. It is mandatory that all students visit the museum and view all of the artifacts by the date the Iceman was discovered, September 19th. The Iceman was found in the year 1991, 10,000 feet high in the Italian Alps. The Iceman connects us to some of our earliest ancestors and tells us a lot about early humans. One of the most exciting things you will get to see is the Iceman himself. Right before his death, the Iceman was shot in the back with an arrow which caused his slender body to fall face first onto a rock. You will notice that the Iceman has a few broken ribs and his arm is pulled across his chest, from trying to break his fall. When scientists were observing the body, they found grain in one of his intestines. This led the scientists to the conclusion that the Iceman must have had access to a farm and did not eat very nutritious food, which was why he was very skinny. The Iceman’s body tells us a …show more content…
He lived a life full of curiosity and experimental thinking that led the human race to survive after he died. It was not his fault that he died because scientists believe that his death was a murder within a war. The Iceman was a hunter and gatherer with the skill to create tools for everyday activities. He used those tools for hunting, growing crops and for survival. The Iceman’s advanced knowledge led to the creation of languages by keeping humans alive to that point of our existence. Without the Iceman, we would probably be living a different life
Ambushed in the Alps Ötzi, a man of repute in his tribe, went up into the mountains above his home to seek counsel from the gods. On his return trip, Ötzi was ambushed. He shot some attackers, but one he faces hand-to-hand. Ötzi won his fight, but with it a terrible scar. His hand was wounded so that he could barely use it.
The Iceman would either sneak it into his victim’s drink, squirt it onto their face, or just spill it anywhere on their body. He also liked to experiment with different types of weapons. Once, he obtained a crossbow and decided to test out its use on a random stranger, who asked directions from.

He was a very dedicated person, and he made something out of nothing. He accomplished more than many other people did. He was also very unheard of, and people should learn more about him. He lived a very simple life after his journeys, and was never being arrogant or bragging, like some other people. He enjoyed being in the arctic, and believed that, “The lure of the Arctic [was] tugging at [his] heart.
From carbon-dating, scientists believe Otzi to be around 5000 years old and have pieced together a range of details that inform us of these prehistoric times. There are a few questions people ask about Otzi; like why was he so high up in the alps and how did he actually died? One theory suggests he was
Jon Spoelestra’s Ice to the Eskimos was very interesting and informative. Throughout the entire book, Spoelestra reflected upon the experiences and knowledge that he gained from working in the sports industry. One interesting aspect of the book was Spoelestra’s principle that organizations should design “an offer that consumers cannot refuse” (Spoelestra, 1997, p. 199). This was particularly interesting to me because of my interest in finance. Initially, I thought that if you make an offer too good, that you could potentially be losing out on some profit, however, after reading this book, this principle makes perfect sense.
He is able to provide everyone with something that they never had before such as snow in the town. The snow that Edward creates from sculpting an ice sculpture represents his affections towards the people in the town and it shows the change that occurred. He shares his artistic talents in a way that can touch people, because physically he is not able to touch others. Even at the end of the film, Edward continues to make snow, thus leaving his mark on the town which shows

Hoenikker devoted himself to researching and developing the impossible, but never stopped to reflect upon the effects of his research on society. After a Marine general propositioned him about a substance that could freeze mud on instantly, Hoenikker insisted that it was impossible. However, Hoenikker made it his goal to create this frozen substance. In fact, he killed himself experimenting with the substance called ice-nine, “... on whose label he had written: ‘Danger!

This shows Victor realizing the inhumane activity he has done and how mentally unstable he has become. Ice and cold symbolize death in the story because someone always died by someone's hands.

His saliva turns into ice before hitting the ground, and he knows this means that it is more than fifty degrees below freezing. Despite the obvious danger and forewarning from an older man, the man and dog continue along the trail. The temperature is the main factor resulting in his death. The human body has limits,

“Ice Age” shows the perfect relationship to Freud's psychoanalytical view of the human mind, being the Id, Ego, and Superego. The movie presents four main characters, Manny, Sid, Diego, and the human infant. The three animals formed a team and banded together to return the human child to its parents. Manny, a mammoth, represents the Superego through his morally-driven actions and efforts towards keeping the child safe. Sid, namely the Id, is a sloth who doesn’t hold back his impulses or desires, similar to the traits of the Ego.
