Free guess: Ötzi

Is he from a nomadic people?

I have no free guesses left, so I'll ask this as a question: is it Lavrentiy Beria? Correct! For any of you interested in this sort of thing: I find the role of him in the Georgian and Abchaz public memory quite interesting, it’s not something I’m an expert in, but it’s the sort of thing I’d know a...

I will invoke rule 10 here to ask a clarifying question to the QM:
