Ötzi’s clothes and some pieces of his equipment were made out of leather and fur. These materials are too hard and too thick to be sewed directly with needle and thread: they must be previously punctured with an awl. Our museum educators will show you how to make an awl of antlers and poplar bark using only flint stylus and a sharpening stone.
