Is a 1,500-year-old Mongolian mummy 'wearing Adidas boots' proof that time travel exists

• Experts believe the body in the Altai Mountains dates back 1,500 years
• It appears to be the first complete Turkic burial found in Central Asia
• One picture of the mummy is causing a stir online after it appears she is wearing what appears to be Adidas boots

The grave was located 9,200 feet (2,803 meters) above sea level. This fact and the cool temperatures helped to preserve the grave, which sat 10ft deep (three metres). The location of the mountains is marked

 

Earlier this week, archaeologists in Mongolia released the first photos of an ancient woman found preserved in the Altai Mountains.  

But one picture in particular is causing a stir online after it appears the 1,500-year-old mummy is wearing what appears to be Adidas boots.

Commenters on Twitter and Facebook are claiming the woman must be a time traveller, albeit many in a jokey and tongue-in-cheek way.

Grave robbers - how would you like to die and have somebody remove you from your grave and then have a team of scientists poking & working on your body some years later.   I do wonder though, did her Timex watch keep on ticking.
