I too am very glad to hear that you weren't seriously hurt. I have been involved with mishap investigation for the air force. Even though we shouldn't speculate at this point, I would look at your elevator controls first based on your description. You raised a very interesting point with being found in the aft part of the fuselage....most seat and seat belt installations only support forward g loading and really don't take aft loading into account. If the elevator control fails, you are just as likely to land inverted as right side up. I will be interested in hearing what the ntsb comes up with so we can all be safer.
