The child from Windeby, the man from Dahmendorf, the skull from Osterby - all have one thing in common: they have been dead for around 2,000 years, and we only know that they exist because they died or were buried in the bog.
The wet, peaty environment has led to some of these Iron Age people being mummified. As so-called bog mummies, they now lie in museums in northern Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands and tell stories from long ago.
