Ancient Bog Girl

The identity of Moora —nicknamed after Uchter Moor, where the remains had been found in 2000 —remained a mystery until 2005. That year, peat workers found a hand at the same spot where the bog body had been found and scientists  were called in. The hand was physically a good fit for the body, they found. What's more, by radiocarbon-dating the peat on the hand determined that Moora died about 650 B.C
