An undated handout file photo shows "Otzi", Italy's prehistoric iceman. "Otzi", Italy's prehistoric iceman, probably does not have any modern day descendants, according to a study published on October 30, 2008. A team of Italian and British scientists who sequenced his mitochondrial DNA -- which is passed down through the mother's line -- found that Otzi belonged to a genetic lineage that is either extremely rare or has died out. Otzi's 5,300-year-old corpse was found frozen in the Tyrolean Alps in 1991.    REUTERS/Handout/Files.  FOR EDITORIAL USE ONLY. NOT FOR SALE FOR MARKETING OR ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS.
