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. The body of the Haraldskaer Woman was preserved due to the anaerobic (shortage of oxygen) conditions and acids of the peat bog in which she was found. Not only was the intact skeleton found, but also the skin and internal organs.
