      They would say .... definitely a donkey human hybrid. Amazing 😆 seriously it would be great that's the closest to eternal life we will get. My guess is he either knew his killer as a fellow member of the tribe since his arrow shaft was removed which would be hard to do in that position of his back by himself or he was part of a hunting party and was wiped out by a bigger tribe but I would say he knew his killer as it's very strange his weapons, clothes and valuables were not taken suggesting he killed the other person in the fight as he had injuries to his hands or he knew them and they didn't want any evidence from the encounter. Probably a tribe take over from a younger member looking to move into his position of leader.
