About 5,000 years ago a nomadic Iceman was out on the hunt for food to gather for his gang of other hunter-gatherers. He was perched on the top of a rock and was searching the planes below for food to hunt and eat. He then suddenly got shot in the back with a bow and arrow and fell in the snowbank below. The people who made the discovery of his body were hikers in the Alps almost five-thousand years later.
