Wieso war Reinhold Messner als einer der Ersten an der Fundstelle? Wieso wurde der Sensationsfund von der Ötztaler Bergwacht geborgen und zunächst nach Innsbruck gebracht und kam erst später nach Bozen? Alles Fragen, die der Comic authentisch beantwortet. La storia di Ötzi, l'uomo dei ghiacci, raccontata e inserita in paesaggi realistici. Il Sudtirolo, habitat di Ötzi 5300 anni fa, tra il Monte Sole in Bassa Venosta e il Similaun in Val Senales, con informazioni e curiosità dell'eneolitico: coppelle, Klumperplatten, menhir, insediamenti la vita della comunità tra feste e rituali. Il lavoro dei cacciatori e dei pastori. Nel 1991, i coniugi Simon trovarono casualmente sul giogo Tisenjoch sullo spartiacque principale delle Alpi Venoste, il corpo mummificato di Ötzi. Come mai fu Reinhold Messner uno dei primi presenti sul luogo del ritrovamento? Perché la sensazionale scoperta fu tenuta nascosta dal servizio di soccorso alpino dell'Ötztal e la mummia fu portata inizialmente a Innsbruck per essere trasferita solo successivamente a Bolzano? Sono le domande alle quali il fumetto risponde con originalità. The story of Ötzi the Iceman in images that reflect the landscape. South Tyrol, where Ötzi lived about 5300 years ago, from Sonnenberg mountain in lower Vinschgau to Similaun in the Schnals valley, with features that are characteristic of the Copper Age: cup-marked stones, "klumperplatten" (large horizontal stone slabs with a second stone on top), menhirs, settlements .... Life in the community with feasts and rituals and the work of the herdsmen and hunters. In 1991, Ötzi's mummified corpse was found by a couple, the Simons, near the Tisenjoch pass on the main Alpine ridge in the Ötztal Alps. Why was Reinhold Messner one of the first people at the discovery site? Why was this sensational find retrieved by the Ötz Valley mountain rescue team, brought to Innsbruck initially and only later to Bolzano? These are all questions to which the comic will provide genuine answers.
