The mystery dawns back to 1943 in Reykjavík, Iceland, where the suspicious character is seen around deployed US soldiers during World War II, according to the Sun.

But this man isn’t in army fatigues. Instead, he stands out for wearing a lightly colored trench coat while holding his hand close to his ear like a modern-day cellphone user would.

It didn’t take long for social media to throw their thoughts into the ring, insisting the man must be a time traveler.

The photo — first posted on the Icelandic Facebook group Gamlar ljósmyndir by user Kristjan Hoffmann in 2016 — was captioned: “One thing that draws attention to this beautiful picture is in 2016 — was captioned: “One thing that draws attention to this beautiful picture is that above the window, in the corner in the middle of the picture, a man is leaning and is on a cellphone,” according to the outlet.

Who would he have been talking to?
Exactly, there's no cell infrastructure. First thing that came to my mind was a portable radio, but I don't think they could be that small pre-transistor. Probably a comb or something.
