Ancient Wonder Revealed: Remarkable Caveman Found Frozen in the Himalayas
While climbing the peaks of the Himalayan mountains, two climbers of Norwegian and Swedish origin headed to one of the secret caves on the mountainside after a series of avalanches began sweeping across the area.
After digging deeper and deeper into one of those caves, they finally found what appear to be the remains of a frozen caveman dating back to the Paleolithic period.
This caveman lived between 2.33 and 1.44 million years ago and, as far as we know, was a prominent figure in the Gelasian Pleistocene period and has been one of the many Homo habilis that inhabited the planet in that time period.
Next to the body, the two explorers also discovered a pair of spears and what appeared to be several damaged leather objects.
The discovery surprised many people, to say the least, as it was actually in almost perfect condition, literally just as they originally found it.
The main reason why the body was not so damaged despite being so old is the fact that inside the cave the body had both the humidity and the cold necessary to remain in cryostasis.
The body will not return anytime soon, as movies often portray these cases, but this discovery allowed us to uncover the truth behind the frozen humanoids that lived on our planet millions of years ago.
