Abstract:
Proceeds from the standpoint that facial reconstructions in archaeology allow empathy with people who lived in the past and enjoy considerable popularity with the public. It is stated that there is a common misconception that facial reconstruction will produce an exact likeness when in fact a resemblance is the best that can be hoped for. Research from Sheffield University into the development of a computer system for facial reconstruction that will be accurate rapid, repeatable, accessible and flexible is described and prototypical 3-D facial reconstructions are presented. Interpolation models simulating obesity, ageing and ethnic affiliation are also described. Some strengths and weaknesses in the models, and their potential for application in archaeology are discussed.
