The aim of the website (www.btinternet.com/~james.fanning/RomanMystery/intro/) is to introduce pupils to aspects of life on Hadrian’s Wall through the study of the murder mystery. The website is divided into sections dealing with the Romans in Britain, Hadrian’s wall, Housesteads fort, the murder house, civilian life at a Roman fort, a visit to Vindolanda and the Greenhead Roman Army Museum. Each section contains worksheets, tests and other tasks, together with links to other websites and references to classroom textbooks. The pupils – or ‘detectives’ – are supplied with murder mystery clues at each stage of their studies, as they seek to unravel the archaeological mystery of the killings.

Site 2 The Iceman's Last Meal - by Brenda Fowler
The Iceman did not die on a full stomach. Eight hours before his death on a barren Alpine pass, he was in the valley to the south, in what is today Italy's Schnals Valley.
