"Iceman" is considered one of the most important discoveries of world archaeologists in recent years. People built a museum for Otzi in Bolzano, Italy. Visitors watch prehistoric warriors through holes in a frozen room.

However, strict storage conditions prevent the public from reaching Otzi. So the photographic project of the Iceman photoscan was born.

The project also created many 3D images of mummies. So viewers need 3D glasses to see.
