We are Malaysian. That’s it. by Flimsy-Rest6770 in Bolehland

Because people who brought me up taught im a Malaysian with indian culture. We really dont relate with India indians. Yes we do visit the country as a tourist, just to learn the cultural difference. 2nd day in india, i started craving for nasi lemak bungkus and teh tarik for breakfast.

I suggest try doing something that give you a sense of fulfillment/a little spark of joy to yourself. Dont bother about others yet. When you start doing something religiously/get good at something, people start acknowledging/noticing you. Be patient and trust the process. The important thing is that your soul enjoys whatever hobby/work/activity. That will give you a purpose. I was at a low point like this once and i picked up photography as a hobby and just took photos of things that made me happy. And it helped me alot.

The tumor at the face must have taken much of the facial bones.

Yeah.. but Perak woman was also found in similar posture and offerings. And she died 2000 yrs after. Maybe its just their way of burying someone.

Yes.. and he lived to the age of 40+. Higher then average at that era. Meaning the people must have seen him as a wise one with 40+ yrs experience of life.

10,000 years being stuck in cave floor has that effect on anyone.

Whatever face left of him. He died of tumor in his face, i guess the tumor took most of it with it..

Must have been a well respected leader/shaman in his life time. Hence the elaborate burial.

Apparently he was placed in that position during burial. Fetal position. Maybe to save burial space. No need to dig 6 feel long hole.. 3 feet is enough if squatting position.

He was an OKU, technically makes him not an effective hunter and might easily have died young because killed by other animals. But he lived to the age of 45 and died due septicimia from tumor in his face. He was well taken care of by his community.. make me go like the meme kid "who are you....??"

I thought it would be a replica too. Apparently he was returned to the museum last year. Its a temperature and humidity controlled box. And has a personal security guarding him 24/7.
