I’ve made him a little younger than when he died. He suffered from terrible gum disease which led to tooth loss. Only four molars remained on the top row of teeth and the bottom set were missing many too. I thought I would give him his dignity rather than looking gummy.

The Sunghir1 burial, from the Early Gravettian, shows a tall man (178cm) with a wide clavicle, suggesting strength, possibly killed by a hostile group. He was buried wearing a outfit that had thousands of mammoth beads sewn into it in an ordered design. He was obviously a revered member of his clan.

Two women, the "ladies of Téviec," had fatal head injuries; one had an arrow shot between her eyes, though earth pressure may explain the damage. The bodies were carefully buried in a pit covered with midden debris and protected by an antler "roof.” commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?...

The Loschbour man hunted boar and deer using flint tools. DNA tests suggest he had intermediate-light skin, brown hair, and likely blue eyes. He was lactose-intolerant, 1.6 m tall, 58–62 kg, and died aged 34–47 years.
