The Isdal Woman
A woman was found burned beyond recognition in a Norwegian valley in 1970, traveling under at least eight false names — and nobody has ever learned who she really was.
On November 29, 1970, hikers found the badly burned body of an unidentified woman in Isdalen ("Ice Valley") near Bergen, Norway. Every identifying label had been removed from her belongings, and investigators later discovered she had traveled under at least eight false identities. More than 50 years later, she remains unidentified.
