What is a complete unknown?

Here's some information about a "Complete Unknown":

A "Complete Unknown" typically refers to someone or something about whom or which there is absolutely no information available. They are entirely unidentified and lacking any traceable history or background.

The concept is often used in the following contexts:

• Law Enforcement and Investigations: A "John Doe" (male) or "Jane Doe" (female) is a common term for an unidentified body or individual. A "Complete Unknown" in this context would mean absolutely no leads or identifying features are present.

• Literature and Film: The "Complete Unknown" archetype can represent mystery, danger, or the opportunity for reinvention. The character's lack of backstory can drive the plot or symbolize a blank slate.

• Abstract Scenarios: It can describe a hypothetical situation or entity where all knowledge is absent. This is often used in thought experiments.

The key characteristics of a "Complete Unknown" are:

• Lack of Identity: No name, identification, or identifying marks.
• Absence of History: No known past or origin.
• Unknowable: Impossible (or extremely difficult) to trace or learn anything about.

The term emphasizes the utter lack of information, highlighting the challenge or mystery involved in dealing with such a subject.
