What can be learned from the remains about Tollund Man when they were alive
From the remains scientists have discovered a pointed leather hat, a leather belt and a braided leather rope tightened in a noose.
From the remains two theories have emerged about how Tollund Man lived:
1. He was a well respected man and possibly a father of a family as having a leather belt may not have been something that a slave would have.
