From the FamilyTreeDNA Blog is a fascinating story about a mtDNA match connecting a present day tester with the 5,000 year old Ötzi, who was discovered in 1991 frozen on the Alps in the border of Austria and Italy. A French citizen of Algerian heritage is a match sharing the K1f haplogroup. The research shows the two shared a maternal line ancestor about 7,000 years ago.

This is super cool, and shows how great the MitoTree progress has been in recent times.
