This undated handout picture shows a mummified body from the third century B.C. that a team of international archaeologists discovered in the Mongolian Altay mountains. Scientists from Russia, Mongolia and Germany unearthed the well-preserved, 2,500-year-old mummy frozen in the snowcapped mountains of Mongolia. The Scythian warrior was found in June 2006 at a height of 2,600 meters (8,500 feet) in the Altay Mountains in an intact burial mound or kurgan.
