The Girl of the Uchter Moor also known as Moora is the name given to the female Iron Age bog body remains, discovered in 2000 in the marshland near Uchte, Germany. The remains include vertebrae, hair and skull pieces. The studies of the body began in 2005. The radiocarbon dating performed at the University of Kiel showed that Moora had died between 764 and 515 B.C. Despite common Iron Age burial practices, the body was not cremated. All of the body parts are estimated to have been found except for one scapula. Before DNA analysis, the body was initially believed to be that of a sixteen-year-old girl, Elke Kerll, who had disappeared in 1969 after going to a dance club.〔 ==Analysis== Moora was determined to be between 17 and 19 years old at the time of her death.〔 She was left-handed.〔 It is thought that Moora experienced intense physical labour and likely repeatedly carried heavy loads, like water jugs, while roaming through the marshland.〔 According to Saring Dennis from the University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf, Moora sustained at least two partial skull fractures that gradually healed themselves.〔 Moora also suffered long periods of sickness associated with the hardships of long winters.〔 The bone growth lines showed that during her childhood and adolescence, Moora suffered from chronic malnutrition.〔 Moora was also diagnosed to have a benign tumor at the base of her skull, which led to the spine curvature and chronic inflammation in the leg bones.〔 However Moora's cause of death is unknown. It was only determined that Moora was naked at the time she was deposited into the bog.〔
