Damian Schofield of Nottingham University and Martin Evison
of Sheffield University, both in the United Kingdom, reconstructed the
face of this bronze-skinned beauty from a 3,400-year-old unidentified
skull discovered in 1898 and forgotten for nearly 100 years. They applied
their
forensic expertise in examining digital X-rays of skulls, the same science
used to identify unknown murder victims.
Neither scientist was given any indication of whose face they were reconstructing
before they started. Schofield and Evison generated this image by first
making a 3-D computer grid of the woman’s skull. from
