Forensic artist reconstructs face of Scottish 'witch'
31 October 2017
The face of a Scottish woman persecuted for witchcraft more than 300 years ago has been reconstructed by forensic scientists.
Lilias Adie died in 1704 in prison before she could be burned for her "confessed" crimes of being a witch and having sex with the devil.
Locals buried her under a large stone on the Fife coast, perhaps believing it would stop her rising from the grave.
Her remains were exhumed in the 19th Century by antiquarians.
