3D-Printing Recreates An Ancient Mummy’s Face
Published on April 9, 2017
Researchers have used facial recreation to determine what the face of an Egyptian woman who lived between 2,000 and 3,500 years ago might have looked like.
In order to do this, they scanned and 3D-printed her skull. Using modern Egyptian facial features, they guessed how deep the flesh would be at various points on the skull. They used some modern forensic techniques to bring her face to life.
Come to think of it, we’d totally watch a show called CSI: Mummies. But only if they bring Grisham back.
