The finds of a modern human found in a limestone cave in
France in 1911 were thought to belong to a female individual due to the size of
the pelvis, and because the wisdom teeth in the skull had not yet erupted, it
was named the Girl of Magdalena.
However, in the later X-ray scan, it was determined that the wisdom teeth were impacted, and it was claimed that it belonged to a woman who died between the ages of 25-35.
The image of the skull, which was damaged during its
discovery and then restored incorrectly, was reconstructed by scanning using
the possibilities of today's technology, and French sculptor Elisabeth Daynes, based
on these data, prepared the model you see now and gave life to the Magdelena
Woman.
Named after her time, the Magdalene Woman has high
cheekbones and a mysterious smile similar to that of the Mona Lisa.
She lived before the ice age and at a time when dogs were
domesticated.
