Ötzi the Iceman carried two medicinal mushrooms 5,300 years ago 🏔️🍄
When the 5,300-year-old mummy was found in the Alps, he had pieces of Birch Polypore and another polypore in his pouch.
Scientists confirmed he used them as antibiotics and fire starters — the oldest known first-aid kit.
The Iceman knew the power of the network long before us.
