What are some of the most interesting computer facial reconstructions of people who lived in prehistory or antiquity?

 

You are looking at the face of a person who lived 15,000 years ago.

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.
