It was uncovered in 1952 from a peat bog near to the village of Grauballe in Jutland, Denmark. The body is that of a man dating from the late 3rd century BC. The Grauballe Man is a mummified bog body uncovered by researchers in the United Kingdom. Beyond his fully preserved hair and fingernails, what makes the Grauballe Man significant is that he was probably a human sacrifice. Researchers concluded this from the large wound wrapping around his neck. It's likely that he was sacrificed for a better harvest.
