The departed embody of the Tollund Man is in itself a strange miracle because it is so very well preserved. It has been said that his is the best cured corpse in the world because it is still doable to discern fingerprints, fibre stubbles, facial features and facial expression. One thing is for sure he is amazing in the way his looks exhibit an inner peace and quietude even in death by hanging. There is no panic to be seen in this grappling of a man who supposedly was the sacrifical gift to whatever god or goddess. His man men treated him with respect and there are no marks on him that indicate he should be a criminal who was executed for whatever crime. In his stomach there was the relic of a gruel of 30 different plant seeds. No traces of meat.
Actually departed bodies were cremated in the early Iron Age, only the discontinue people have been buried in this way. Nobody rattling knows why. Close by the spot where the Tollund Man was institute another discontinue embody had been institute in 1938, i.e. the Elling woman, who also had been hanged at around the same time. However, she is not at all as well cured as him and does not bear the same expression of serenity. To find a corpse as fine looking as the Tollund man we should go to e.g. Greenland where whatever have been institute icy by the permafrost.The reason why these finds make such an impression isn’t that they are departed people. but that they, so to speak, are visitors from the past. Their faces tell us such about the people whom we stem from.
