309UFDEUExperts led by Professor Vanesses from the University of Glasgow in Scotland have given the victim a face again

On June 2, 1997, around 7:30 p.m. a motorcyclist used was riding in a forest in a wooded area in the Altena-Bergfeld, Germany. This was where he found the charred remains of a young woman. The girl had been sexually assaulted and strangled in another area before being brought to where she was found. The girl was believed to have been alive when she was doused with fuel and set on fire. Based on DNA this crime was committed by a family member of the girl, likely her father. It's possible family or father claimed that the girl moved away or ran away. It could also be possible that they claimed to have reported her missing but never did.

She was a white female between 14 and 20-years-old. She was 154 cm and 45 kg. She had auburn to dark brown hair and blue eyes. She was petite and had a pale complexion. Her teeth were in good condition and received good dental care. One of her upper incisors (tooth12) has an adhesive point attached in a professional way by creating corrosion, it was possibly a diamond-like (likely imitation) ornament around 2mm. The ornament may have been intentionally removed during the crime.

Murder of Ginger (Gebelein Man)


There were 6 bodies found in the Gebelein, Egypt dating around 3400 BC. They were excavated in the late 1800s by Wallis Budge. At this time that mummification Egypt is known for wasn't developed. The mummies were naturally mummified by being placed in a shallow grave in direct contact with hot and dry sand that would absorb the body's liquids. They were in a curled, fetal position because that was common practice at the time. One of the more notable mummies in this excavation was the Gebelein Man or Ginger as he was a murder victim.

Ginger was around 18 to 21-years-old when he died. He had notable red hair that was preserved with his body and this gave him his nickname. After some infrared scans on the body, it was found that he had a tattoo of a figure that looked like a smudge without the scan. Which may have been the oldest preserved tattoo of figures.

Through analysis, it was determined that he had had been murdered. He had injuries that coincided with a deliberate assault. His shoulder blade was damaged and the rib underneath shattered likely from a stab wound. He was likely surprised by the attack as he had no defensive wounds. The weapon used was a copper or flint blade at least 5 inches long.

Why he was murdered and who he was is now lost to time. His body is currently at the British Museum in London, England.
