Scientists reconstructed the face of ancient Egyptian Pharaoh Seqenenre-Tao-II using CT scans, revealing small eyes, lips, & high cheekbones. A blow to the brain was likely the cause of death.
The debate on whether Seqenenre-Tao-II was captured or killed in battle persists. The facial reconstruction, based on a mangled skull found in the 1800s, sheds light on possible scenarios of his demise.
Researchers digitally recreated the pharaoh's face by matching his skull with another individual's, altering it to reflect his features. The process included anatomical deformation, adjusting skin color to match ancient Egyptians, and adding wounds to visualize the fatal injuries.
