The man suffered five blows to the head during a violent murder.

A man who suffered a"brutal death" 1,400 years ago in modern-day Scotland may have been an ancient royal, researchers have discovered.

The man's unusual placement led scientists with the Rosemarkie Caves Project to believe his burial was somehow special. Further investigations have found other clues to support this idea, including evidence he enjoyed a high-protein diet, news agencySimon Gunn, founder of the project, told PA Media:"It's rather peculiar that he had a very high-protein diet throughout his life, to the extent that it's as if he had been eating nothing but suckling pigs.

A stone tablet depicts a Pict with hooded cloak and Pictish trousers, St.Vigeans, Scotland, c8th—9th century C.E. Picts lived in parts of Scotland between the Late British Iron Age and the Early Medieval period.The man, who Gunn said was"built like a rugby player," had serious injuries to his head, but nowhere else. Researchers think that means he probably didn't perform labor-intensive work or fight in battles.

In 2017, researchers revealed a digital reconstruction of the Pictish man's face. Their investigations revealed the extent of his injuries.
