Love to see them turning history into pictures that could be living, breathing humans again.

Lovely reconstruction.

i want to donate my body to science so they can recreate my face from my skull to see how close they can get it... my thought is it’s too formulaic...

Well at least he doesn’t look like Jean Luc Picard or the Geico caveman like a lot of recreations....

I noticed no one who actually knew the guy argued with the likeness. Must be accurate.

'In general terms, the statues of Amenhotep I are compatible in the nose region, but more gracile in the glabella region and more projected in the chin region.'

I had to check this one out in the mirror - yup, I have a gracile glabella region. Good to know.

It means a slender area of skin between the eyebrows and above the nose. Dang scientists.

Unfortunately it is generally the opinion that the Sphinx is at least 1000 years older than the 18th Dynasty, more likely around the time of the 4th Dynasty or earlier. Thus around 4,500 years ago. See various opinions at this Google page:
