The 2,500-Year-Old Frozen Woman Found In Siberia — And The Secrets Hidden Inside The Ice Maiden’s Tomb
With the ice, she survived.
The ice kept her skin intact.
It preserved her tattoos.
It preserved her clothing — the silk blouse, the wool skirt — in conditions that prevented the microbial degradation that would otherwise have destroyed them.
It kept the food on the burial table.
It kept the leather harnesses on the sacrificed horses.
It kept the carved wooden objects, the textile decorations, the felt panels.
The ice was not simply a preservative in the mundane sense.
