Pangboche Hand

Also known as the Yeti hand was kept as an artifact in a Buddhist monastery in Pangboche, Nepal. It was first photographed in 1957 during a “Abominable Snowman” trek. The monks firmly believed the hand belonged to a Yeti and considered it to be sacred. They refused to have it tested.

It was finally examined by William Charles Osman Hill(1960), who claimed it was hominid and possibly Neanderthal. In 1991 it was featured on the NBC show “Unsolved Mysteries” in which they verified that the DNA was “near human” but not human.

After the show, the hand was stolen and never seen again.
