How was the Haraldskaer Woman peserved?
The Haraldskaer Woman is an Iron Age bog body found naturally preserved in a bog in Jutland, Denmark. Labourers discovered the body in 1835 while excavating peat on the Haraldskaer Estate. Arguments regarding the age of this well-preserved body were settled in 1977, when radiocarbon dating determined that her death occurred around the fifth century BC.

Not only was the intact skeleton found, but also the skin and internal organs.
