Exhumation in Australia May Solve Decades-Long Mystery
Somerton Man Exhumation to be Carried Out in Hope of Solving Decades-Long Mystery
ABC News •18 May 2021
The highly anticipated exhumation of the remains of the mysterious Somerton Man will be carried out today — the first step towards potentially developing a DNA profile and cracking the decades-long cold case.
The exhumation could be the first step in a potentially lengthy process, but there are unanswered questions about the condition of the man's body and whether DNA can be retrieved.
The identity and cause of death of the Somerton Man have remained a mystery ever since his body was spotted by passers-by slumped against the seawall at Somerton Beach on December 1, 1948.
