Face of 4,000-Year-Old 'Hitra Man' Reconstructed | WION Podcast

Norwegian researchers have reconstructed the face of a prehistoric man who lived 4,000 years ago, using DNA and skeletal analysis. Discovered in 1916 on Hitra island, the man is believed to have drowned when the area was underwater. He was around 5'6" with blonde hair and blue eyes. Artefacts found with him suggest he may have been a warrior. His reconstruction offers new insights into life during the late Stone Age in Scandinavia.

Did he use an electric trimmer to trim his beard so nicely? Did Remington exist 4000 years ago? Nice try Norway.🤣🤣🤣

All images are only representative, (as stated in the lower right corner). For the actual reconstructed face type Hitra Man in you favorite search engine. The information seems to have circulated in May 2024 (not this year [April 2025]). 🙃

How come they are showing him with red hair and beard if he had blond hair.
