What a fantastic trip to the past and as well into the science of re-construction. Thanks for sharing. I was fascinated.

This is super-cool (the NZ involvement in the reconstruction project especially so). Even though the reconstruction is an approximation, it’s amazing to realise we can see the faces of these people anew – and, really, they were just like us… with all the issues in their lives of any large and complex human society.

I love this type of thing — combining technologies to bring the past to life. There was a History Channel program that did this with Abraham Lincoln. The reconstruction was totally digital, though, and they animated it. He smiled and blinked. It was kind of creepy.

This led me to many other sites of historical and cultural interest that turned a two minute 3AM email check into 45 minutes of fascinating stuff. I should have just grabbed the chocolate and jumped back to sleep and not turned on the computer.
