Museum exhibition on ‘Bog People’: An article in today’s Calendar about “The Mysterious Bog People” exhibition at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County contains this sentence: “One, the head of ‘Red Franz’ -- not part of this exhibition -- has been so well preserved he looks asleep, the stubble of his beard sprouting from smooth skin.” The description is actually of “Tolland Man,” who is not in the exhibition. The “Red Franz” cadaver is included.

For the record:

He is known as “Tollund Man,” not “Tolland Man.”
