On May 6, 1950 Hojgard brothers from the small village of Tollund were cutting peat for their tile stove and the kitchen range in the Bjaeldskovdal peat bog, 10 km west of Silkeborg, Denmark. As the two brothers worked, they suddenly saw in the peat layer a face so fresh that they could only suppose that they had stumbled on a recent murder. They immediately notified the police at Silkeborg. [Read full article]
