Newly uncovered records from Swinburne University of Technology indicate that the Charles Webb widely believed to be the Somerton Man enrolled there as a teenager in 1920.

"It seems he did evening classes there for two years, basically this is where he got his training to be an electrical fitter."

"[The enrolment] records his date of birth — 16th of November 1905, which is the date of birth we know for the actual Charles Webb, so that's an absolute match, and why we're confident we've got the right guy here," Professor Abbott said. After the Somerton Man's body was discovered by passers-by in December 1948, a plaster bust was made of his head.
