Bog Body Röst Girl

The Röst Girl was the preserved body of a young girl discovered in a bog, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, in 1926.


Studies revealed that she lived sometime between 200 BC and 95 AD. She was around three years old when she died and is possibly the youngest bog body ever found to this date. Unfortunately, the body no longer exists. It was destroyed (along with so many other historical artifacts and treasures) during WWII.

Only a woolen cloak that was found wrapped around the body remains. The cloak was used to date her remains. The cause of her death is not known.
