Swamp Grass Matting - Woven grass found in 3 large sections. The exact purpose of this artifact is still debated. It has been suggested that it was used as a cape, mat, head covering, or part of a backpack. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Hide Coat - Tanned hide of a goat stitched together to form a coat. The coat may or may not have had sleeves. The fur was worn facing out and alternated to create a light-dark pattern. The coat had no fastener so it was made to be worn open, it was closed using a belt, or it was lost. This artifact was very well worn indicating the iceman had used it for a very long time. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Loincloth - Rectangular pieces of leather also from a goat stitched together with animal sinew. It is one meter long and presumably worn by pulling it between the legs and fastening it at the waist with a belt. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Bearskin Cap - Strips of bear hide sewn together and worn with the fur on the outside. Two leather straps were on either side and used to be tied under the chin to secure the hat. Both of these straps were found torn. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Leggings - Pieces of goat hide stitched together with animal sinew. Deerskin laces were on the top and bottom of the pants and used to secure the leggings to the belt and shoes in order to keep them in place. *Oldest of their kind in the world! (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Shoes - Made of many parts, the inner netting made of grass covered by insulating hay and the outer part made of deerskin leather. These components were attached to an oval bearskin sole by leather straps. Experiments have recreated the shoes and found the design to be not only warm but also workable. *Oldest of their kind in the world! (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Minerals and Tools - Miscellaneous variety of tools and supplies, including many types of wood, leather, flint, grasses, etc. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Copper Axe - Yew haft 60 cm long forked at the top to fit the copper blade which was secured with tar and leather straps. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Dagger - Triangular flint blade attached to an ash wood handle by animal sinews. It was overall 13 cm long. It had its own sheath, which could be attached to a belt for easy access, made of grass fibers sewn together. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Retoucheur - This is a tool used to work with flint, either to shape flint flakes into tools or sharpen existing ones. It is made of a lime branch with a stag's antler driven into the center and protruding from the end and is 12cm long. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Bow - A 1.82 meter long bow stave made of yew that was still being constructed. No bowstring was found. The wood was covered with blood which was used as water repellant. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Quiver - Rectangular bag made of chamois hide and given structure by a rod of hazel wood that had broken in his lifetime. The lid and strap were not found but the bag did have a side pocket. The contents included arrows, arrowheads, and miscellaneous tools and supplies. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Arrows - There are twelve unfinished arrow shafts and only two finished arrows complete with flint heads. Analysis showed that the two finished arrows were made by two different people. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Birch Bark Containers - Two cylindrical containers made of birch bark pieces that were stitched together. The insides were blackened and contained plant remains leading to the conclusion that the containers were used to keep a fire alight. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Stone Disc - Circular piece of Dolomite marble with a hole in the center threaded onto a strip of hide leather tassel. It is a noose used to tie the necks of birds caught for hunting and food. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Net - Mesh net made of tree bast string. Most likely used to trap small game animals. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Belt - Rectangular strip of calf leather that was two meters long and 4-5 cm wide. Pouch - Piece of sewn on leather closed via a leather thong. It contained various fire starting tools and a bone awl. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

Backpack - A U-shaped piece of hazel wood and two larch wood boards bound together by grass string. Most likely covered by some type of hide, but not actually found. The artifact was found in pieces. (South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology)

First Aid Kit/ Medicine - Strips of leather hide threaded through lumps of polypore fungus that were tied to clothing. The fungi have known medicinal properties against intestinal parasites. Researchers wonder if these medicinal purposes were yet known at this time period. Some would say yes due to the fact the iceman had an intestinal infection which led him to use these fungi.
