Learning about tollund man in history, my teacher said he was 20 when he died as he had his wisdom teeth, but you don't lose your wisdom teeth at the age of 30 do so how is it evidence?

Same what sch
Sorry about it being posted 3 times , glitch
It's hard to find out what happened a long time ago is quite hard because there are many different theories of how something occurred. So to say so saying is wrong is difficult to say because we won't ever actually know what happened because we weren't there. Although for a homework situation it is best to look at many different opinions from archaeologists and historians then yourself make a theory based on what you personally believe is true. I also am researching tollund man for a year 7 project so personally I believe he was a sacrificed :)
And the last meal the tollund man ate had seeds that could only be found in Spring so that is some proof that he could of been a sacrifice. I learnt that in history today.
;)
