Face of 45,000-year-old woman reconstructed 70 years after skull foundBy Adriana Diaz August 1, 2023An international team of researchers has approximated the face of a woman whose 45,000-year-old remains were discovered more than 70 years ago.The severed skull of the Zlatý kůň woman — the oldest modern human to be genetically sequenced — was found buried in a cave system in the Czech Republic in 1950.Scientists created the digital face using data from the 2018 CT scans of her reconstructed skull, according to an online paper published last month.One image shows a woman with dark, curled hair, light brown skin, and brown eyes set on a strong face with proportionally wide features.Interesting Engineering noted that the woman’s nine-piece skull is under the care of the Department of Anthropology of the National Museum in Prague, and the researchers didn’t have access to the bones for their facial experiment. * * *Source: https://nypost.com/2023/08/01/face-of-45000-year-old-woman-reconstructed-70-years-after-skull-found/
