===Description=== The cranium was fully intact including all of its teeth from the time of death.{{sfnp|Chatters|2004}} All major bones were found except the [[Human sternum|sternum]] and a few in the hands and feet.{{sfnp|Chatters|2000}} After further study, Chatters concluded it was "a male of late middle age (40β55 years), and tall (170 to 176 cm, 5β²7β³ to 5β²9β³), and was fairly muscular with a slender build".{{sfnp|Chatters|2004}} The Owsley team in 2005 reported he may have been as young as 38 at the time of death.{{sfnp|Lemonick|Dorfman|2006}} A small bone fragment submitted to the [[University of California, Riverside]] for [[radiocarbon dating]] estimated he lived between 9,300 and 9,600 years ago (8,400 [[Calibrated years|uncalibrated]] "radiocarbon years"), and not the 19th century, as had originally been thought.{{sfnp|Custred|2000}} Subsequent radiocarbon dating indicated a somewhat younger age of 8,900 to 9,000 years BP,{{sfnp|Stafford|2014}}{{sfnp|Preston|2014}} and later 8,400 to 8,690 calibrated years [[Before Present]].<ref name="Rasmussen" />
