Russian Academy of Science. Pugachev said that it was impossible to verify the DNA due to a lack of hair bulbs, and stated that the structure of the hair showed it could have belonged to a goat, bear or other animal. Nevertheless, there is strong interest in the possibility of a yeti or similar type of creature being found.
One theory is that the members of the group all fell victim to some form of malign Siberian troll or group of trolls, or possibly a yeti-type creature. Whilst no one has ever produced concrete evidence of the existence of these trolls or yetis, what the theorists of the Dyatlov incident have focused on is a comment in the Evening Otorten , the ‘joke newspaper’ made by the group: ‘We now know that Snowmen exist.’ There is no other reference in the diaries to this statement and neither is the statement expanded upon. As already stated (in Chapter 5), there is some dispute about the dates of the Evening Otorten and also whether the comment about the ‘Snowmen’ is actually true, but with the paper having disappeared, nothing can be verified. Once again, a different meaning is ascribed to the last photograph taken by the group (seeUFOs/light spheres, above), which appears to show lights. This picture, actually from Igor Dyatlov’s camera, is taken by some of the troll/yeti theorists to show a pair of hands grabbing forward. The whole theory – which also attempts to account for the worst of the internal injuries by the fact of a powerful creature squeezing the victims without leaving external marks – is very flimsy. There is virtually nothing to substantiate it and, again, we come back to the issue of a lack of footprints, as it would be assumed that these trolls or yetis would at least make some form of track.
The lair of the golden woman 15
The leading researchers in this field (the paranormal) in relation to the USSR are Paul Stonehill and Philip Mantle. They have researched this subject for many years and, at the time of writing, they are currently working on a project to explain the events concerning the deaths of the Dyatlov group, which involves the ‘golden woman’ (in Russian zolotaya baba ). They hope to publish the results of their research very shortly. The ‘golden woman’ is a well-known phenomenon in the northern Urals and has a long history, believed to stem from the Khanty and Mansi ancestors’ (Ob-Ugric people) contact with ancient peoples in the north of India, or possibly Sumerians in Southern Mesopotamia. The lair of the ‘golden woman’ is believed to lie close to Mount Otorten and, throughout its history, the lair was closely guarded by the ancestors of the present-day Khanti and Mansi people. The actual deaths of the Dyatlov group, who may have come close to the lair of the ‘golden woman’, are believed to have been caused by a form of directed energy. Little comment can be made until Paul Stonehill and Philip Mantle publish the results of their investigations.

The deceased had made last desperate attempts to seek extra protection from the cold by the ‘burrowing behaviour’.
